Chile Stumbled, But Made It Through To The Knockout Stage All The Same

Chile found themselves in an unenviable position Sunday, going down 1-0 to Australia and putting their spot in the Confederations Cup semifinals in jeopardy.

Fortunately for Chile, they are very good, and one thing very good teams do is score against Australia when they really need to. So Martin Rodriuez scored.

And everything is fine for Chile. They will play Portugal on Wednesday.
