Spain even though lost their first match to Switzerland, but they slowly gain back their momentum, and all the way sail to Final. In fact, they managed to take down German by 1 goal in Semi-Final as most of the people expected Germany to be the World Champion with their superb performance and good teamwork. On the other hand, Netherlands won all the matches and their performance is much more stable and convincing. During their match with mighty Brazilians, the Dutch actually made a superb come back. Robinho scored the opening goal, but the in-form midfielder, Sneijder scored twice and eliminated Brazil. 
Meanwhile, not to forget to mention the clash between Germany and Uruguay for the third and forth placing. The genius German striker, Müller scored the first goal for Germany, but two goals from Cavani and Forlan actually helped Uruguay to take back the leading position. Jansen, the German defender leveraged the score few minutes after the Forlan’s goal. Finally, Khedira scored the winning goal for Germany at 82 minute. German won the third place, and in fact they were also third in the previous World Cup.
