The Dutch adopted spoiling tactics to nullify the Spanish threat, forcing English referee Howard Webb to show five yellow cards in a first half which degenerated into a scrappy brawl - and led to 14 yellow cards and a red for the Netherlands' John Heitinga by the end of the game. | Netherlands squad | Spain squad | 01 Stekelenburg 02 Van Der Wiel Yellow card 03 Heitinga Yellow card Red card 04 Mathijsen Yellow card 05 Van Bronckhorst Captain Yellow card (Braafheid, 105) 06 Van Bommel Yellow card 08 De Jong Yellow card (Van der Vaart, 99) 10 Sneijder 07 Kuyt (Elia, 70) 09 Van Persie Yellow card 11 Robben Yellow card | 01 Casillas Captain 03 Pique 05 Puyol Yellow card 11 Capdevila Yellow card 15 Sergio Ramos Yellow card 06 Iniesta Yellow card 08 Xavi Yellow card 14 Alonso (Fabregas, 87) 16 Busquets 07 Villa (Torres, 105) 18 Pedrito (G Jesus Navas, 60) |

The Netherlands will play Spain at Soccer City in Johannesburg on Sunday (11.07.2010) at 1930 BST for the right to lift the greatest sporting trophy on earth. The Netherlands and Spain have never met in the World Cup or Europe Cup before. SPAIN HAVE REACHED THE WORLD CUP FINAL FOR THE FIRST TIME Spain were definitely the better side. Carles Puyol, who has just headed Spain into their first World Cup final, looks like he is in a state of shock. Two of the world's best players, Andres Iniesta and Bastian Schweinsteiger, exchange shirts, while Per Mertesacker looks heartbroken. Spain - 93 min SUBSTITUTION Spain send on Carlos Marchena for Xabi Alonso. He probably won't touch the ball, but he might be leaping around in a few seconds' time. "You wonder why Germany waited for a 1-0 down until they began to play ...." 81 mins SUBSTITUTION There's a change apiece, with Mario Gomez coming on for Sami Khedira for Germany and Fernando Torres replacing David Villa for Spain. Spain - 81 min SUBSTITUTION David Villa gets off (81 min) Germany - 81 min SUBSTITUTION Khedira gets off (81 min) 73 mins GOAL Germany 0-1 Spain (Puyol) Despite all Spain's dominance,more frustration for Spain, they just cannot get that final ball right on the edge of the Germany box. It is still 0-0 and that will play on their minds with them having never been in a World Cup final. Germany - 61 min SUBSTITUTION Trochowski gets off (61 min) Another change for the Germans - Joachim Loew doesn't mess about. Toni Kroos comes on for Piotr Trochowski with just under half an hour remaining in Durban. Spain nearly got the ball into Germany.. 2 times!!!! (57 min) Germany - 51 min SUBSTITUTION Boateng gets off (51 min) Germany make a change early on in the second half and it's Jerome Boateng who comes off, with Marcell Jansen coming on in his place. | Spain fouls Germany (Podolski) 27min Spain coach Vicente del Bosque: “We know we can play better than we have done so far and we hope to do that in the semi-final. I think it will be a good advert for football.” | Germany squad | Spain squad | 01 Neuer 03 Friedrich 16 Lahm Captain 17 Mertesacker 20 Boateng (Jansen, 52) 06 Khedira (Gomez, 80) 07 Schweinsteiger 08 Ozil 15 Trochowski (Kroos, 62) 10 Podolski 11 Klose | 01 Casillas Captain 03 Pique 05 Puyol 11 Capdevi 15 Sergio Ramos 06 Iniesta 08 Xavi 14 Alonso (Marchena, 90+3) 16 Busquets 07 Villa (Torres, 81) 18 Pedrito (Silva, 85) |
