A well deserved win. Spain had much more possession and more than twice as many shots. Germany could not get their counter-attack going, and missed having Thomas Muller on the pitch. Carles Puyol is one of the shortest guys on the field; how in the world does a puny Catholic outleap a bunch of tall Lutherans on a corner kick?? Viva Espana!

The Dutch haven’t forgotten that they are a former Spanish colony!
Egmont, thy people have need of thee now! Rise up and vanquish Alba and his Papist hordes!
Excellent play making from Spain. No spark for Germany.

Well, #2, perhaps it was a leap of [b]faith[/b]?
I wonder if the Dutch and the Spanish have competed like this since the 1570s?!
