Spain has won the 2010 World Cup!! Not only are they World Champions for the first time but they are also the first European side to win the World Cup outside of the continent. Spain are also the Euro 2008 Champions. This makes them the third team to hold both titles after West Germany and France.
I managed to watch it on TV1 (Malaysian local TV network) with my son. He fell asleep not long after the match started. I watched it for awhile and it watched me for quite sometime. I woke up again to catch a bit more of it but I ended up being watched by it. Then I woke up just in time to watch the extra time. And the goal. I thought Spain was a bit lucky to get the goal. It could have easily gone the other way as there was an infringement right before the goal. Unlucky Holland for not being awarded a free kick just outside the penalty box? Maybe. Third time unlucky for them. Would have been nice if they won the World Cup on the third attempt. Anyways, we will have to wait and see who will be crowned champion in 4 years time.
