Top 9 Photos from the 2010 FIFA World Cup Final

It wasn't the best match of this World Cup or one of
the greatest finals ever, but it was a fiery one, with two
fantastic goalkeepers and one fantastic Andres Iniesta, who rose
up to the occasion in the two most crucial games, scoring home
the winner for Spain in the 116th minute, handing them their
first ever World Cup trophy and complete a two year double along
with their Euro trophy from 2008. Here are the best moments
from last night -

Shades of WWE:

Howard Webb pulled out 14 yellow cards, the most ever in a
World Cup Final. One was issued here to Nigel De Jong after drop
kicking Xabi Alonso.
This should have been a red.

Arjen Robben had two fantastic one on one chances with Casillas.
The Spanish keeper came out on top twice. Robin Van Persie?
Head like to forget 2009-2010 and especially this World Cup,
despite reaching the final. One goal in seven matches was
way below expectations.


I Believe I can Fly<

Iker Casillas had a fantastic match, and a great tournament,
conceding only two goals in seven matches, shades of Italy in 2006.
Puyol didn't have the best of games last night, but that
doesn't change the fact he has a huge part in this historic

A Hero's Touch

Andres Iniesta isn't a prolific goal scorers, but he's done it
for Barcelona against Chelsea in the Champions League,
and now for Spain on the biggest stage of all, the World Cup Final.
Van der Vaart can only look.


Never Forget

Andres Iniesta celebrated his goal by pulling off his shirt and
revealing the writing Dani Jarque Siempre con nosotros
Meaning Dani Jarque, always with us. Dani Jarque played for Espanyol
and was a close friend of Iniesta. He died last year after suffering
a heart attack at the age of 26.

It's never too late to Argue:

Joris Mathijsen, down 1-0 in the final minutes of extra time,
had time to argue with Howard Webb about something. He got a card.
Webb isn't the most popular figure in Holland after yesterday,
when he did seem to slightly favor the Spanish side on the 50-50 calls.

Never Let Go:

When you win, a big one, and there's nothing bigger than last night,
you want to hold one to every moment and everything, forever.


For the First Time, World Champions:

There are Losers, Too:

Wesley Sneijder had a fantastic World Cup and almost completed
a perfect year after winning the treble with Inter. Almost.
To be so close to perfection and World Cup glory is nothing less
than heartbreaking.
