CLUB INFORMATION

Under Argentine coach Marcelo Bielsa Chilean football has seen a resurgance and the way they qualified for the 2010 World Cup left no illusions as to their ability.

Quick, slick passing is the order of their game and they play with the kind of Latin flair that has made South American football famous.

There are few sides in 2010 who will fancy taking on the Chileans, who could well emulate their best ever finish when they reached the semifinals in 1962.
