6. Switzerland Vs. Iceland 4-4
Highly favoured Switzerland wasted a 4-1-lead against soccer nobody Iceland at World Championship qualification 2013. Maybe the biggest soccer upset before the World Championship itself.
Though it was the visitors Iceland who took the lead with only three minutes played into the first half with a goal from Jóhann Gudmundsson but the lead was not long lived with the two teams leaving the score line at 3-1 in favor of Switzerland.
But as the game proceeded in the second-half Blerim Dzemaili converted a penalty for Switzerland to make it 4-1. This was a convincing lead but Iceland responded immediately with a goal from Kolbeinn Sigthórsson to make it 4-2. Before Jóhann Gudmundsson scored two goals to complete his hat trick and level the score and earn a point for his team there by ending the match with a full time score line of 4-4.
