Spain beats Germany 1-0 to reach World Cup final

None

Carles Puyol soared high to head in the goal that sent Spain into the World Cup final for the first time with a 1-0 win over Germany on Wednesday. Spain's best previous World Cup finish was fourth in 1950, when the final round consisted of a four-team group.

 

In Sunday's final at Soccer City, Spain will meet the Netherlands, which has also never won football's biggest trophy. (AP)
