Spain Plays Holland in Title Showdown for World Cup 2010

After almost a month of nail bit­ing, scream­ing and cheer­ing, the FIFA World Cup 2010 is down to its last two teams. Spain and the Nether­lands face each other on the 11^th of this month to decide who is going to win the most pres­ti­gious tro­phy in the foot­ball world.

Spain, who was the favorite at the begin­ning of the World Cup, passed through a rough route to the finals, while their coun­ter­part, the Dutch have sailed through with impres­sive per­for­mances through­out. The Dutch dis­patched Uruguay on Tues­day to earn their spot in the cham­pi­onship game.

Lines­Maker has given Hol­land odds of 7–5, while Spain is at 1–2 to win the World Cup title. Inter­est­ingly, the fact that the Dutch came back to beat Brazil, the num­ber one team in the FIFA rank­ings, bodes well for their chances to win the finals; the num­ber two team in the FIFA rank­ings was Spain.

In a tightly con­tested game on Wednes­day, Spain came up trumps against the Ger­mans beat­ing them one nil. Both teams started defen­sively, but it was the Spaniards who set­tled down first, not let­ting Ger­many come close to the ball. Spain dom­i­nated pos­ses­sion with their quick passes, while Ger­many wasn’t allowed to play their game; Puyol scored for Spain to reach the finals.

The game will be a nail-biter as we will see a first-time World Cup cham­pion given that nei­ther Spain nor the Nether­lands has won before.
