2010 FIFA WORLD CUP FINALS: NETHERLANDS VS SPAIN – Spain and Netherlands have never played each other in either European and World Cup Championship. Now, we will be seeing them in the FIFA World Cup finals on Sunday, July 11, 2010, which will be held at the Soccer City stadium, formerly known as “FNB Stadium,” in Johannesburg.

Neither team has previously won the FIFA World Cup so winning the World Cup title on Sunday will be a history. Both teams are aiming to join the “magnificent seven” winners – Argentina, Brazil, England, France, Germany, Italy, and Uruguay. Aside from that it is also the first win for a European team in a finals tournament held outside of Europe.

It will definitely be a good match most especially that it is Spain’s World Cup finals appearance and Spain’s most outstanding performance in the World Cup tournament so far. In 1950, Spain battled against Sweden for the third place but unfortunately lose the match. After 6 decades, they were back defeating Honduras and Chile in the group stage matches, Portugal in the knockout stage, Paraguay in the quarterfinals, Germany in the semifinals, and now facing Netherlands in the World Cup finals.

Meanwhile, Holland should never be underestimated. This team tops Group E holding a perfect record and this teams had faced several big teams in the World Cup history. They defeated Slovakia in the knockout stage, the 5-time World Cup champion – Brazil in the quarterfinal, and the first World Cup champion – Uruguay in the semifinals.
