SPAIN, the new world football champion

Spain finally fulfilled their potential as they claimed their first World Cup trophy thanks to an extra-time winner from Andres Iniesta helping them edge Holland 1-0 in the final at Soccer City in Johannesburg.
Spain had the best of the play in a bruising game in which nine players were shown yellow cards by English referee Howard Webb in the first 90 minutes, a World Cup final record.

As the two teams hadn’t met for a very long time the game lacked the show many of the fans expected. There was a lot of caution and reservation at the beginning. The battle of the evening, from my point of view was between Roben and Puyol. Roben ran all the game and had some amazing opportunities to score, but Casillas was very fortunate.



Even Paul, the psychic German octopus, predicted Spain's triumph at the world cup and Iniesta added: "As for the octopus, what can I say? We won. The octopus will be very popular in Spain."


Love u. Take care.
