Andres Iniesta scored with four minutes of extra time remaining to give Spain a 1-0 win over the Netherlands and a first World Cup title. With the teams facing a penalty shootout in a game of few clear chances, Iniesta collected a sliding pass into the area from substitute Cesc Fabregas and smashed the ball across goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg.
Spain had the best of the play in a bruising game in which nine players were shown yellow cards by English referee Howard Webb in the first 90 minutes, a World Cup final record.
- Congrats SPAIN!

Big shocker, Spain won. Everyone know's the ref made calls in their favor the entire WC. I don't care for either of the top 2 teams but I wished the game was a little more fair.

Oh yeah, Enrique said he's waterski naked if Spain won. Wonder if he'll actually do it.
