2010 FIFA World Cup: Spain qualified for the 2010 FIFA World Cup final on Wednesday after defeating Germany in the semi finals. Carles Puyol scored the only goal of the match for the European champions from a corner kick which was taken by his teammate Xavi, who plays as a central defender for his national team.
