Yesterday evening was the second semifinal of the world football championship between Germany and Spain. It was a repeat of the UEFA EURO 2008 decider, which Spain won courtesy of a solitary Fernando Torres goal. This time the European champions had to work hard to unpick their opponents' defense, eventually doing so via Puyol's commanding header 17 minutes before the end of the game. By doing so, Puyol advanced Spain in her first world final. It’s the first time in the history of the world cup when in the final there isn’t Germany, France, Italy, Argentina or Brazil.
I don’t know how many of you appreciate a good match of football but I couldn’t remain insensitive to such an event. It was a great game, with many intense moments and the Spanish team deserved to win.

Spain faces the Netherlands on Sunday at Soccer City in Johannesburg, ensuring a first-time champion. The Dutch, who beat Uruguay 3-2 on Tuesday night, have lost in their only two trips to the final. The two teams have never met in the World Cup and their all-time series is dead even. All the predictions give Spain as the next world champion, but the Dutch mustn’t be underestimated.
Looking forward to the game. Vamos Espana!!!!
Love u. Take care.
