Beausejour on target as Chile win
Posted Wednesday, June 16, 2010 by PA
Jean Beausejour secured Chile's first World Cup win since 1962 as the South Americans made an impressive tournament entrance with a 1-0 victory over Honduras.
Beausejour rewarded coach Marcelo Bielsa for his attacking approach by claiming the only goal after 34 minutes of an entertaining Group H encounter at Nelspruit's striking Mbombela Stadium.
With Alexis Sanchez a constant threat, Chile should have won more convincingly with a number of chances squandered, particularly in the second half. Waldo Ponce had the best of them when he headed straight at Noel Valladares from point-blank range.
