Spain vs Russia

An uneventful first half ends 0-0. Iniesta changes the game with a superb assist for Xavi to score in the 50th minute. I was expecting more from the Russians. Super sub Fabregas was the difference in my opinion... he later provides 2 assists to seal the game 3-0.
Spain move on to the final. I'm surprised by their success this year after being perennial underachievers in major tournaments. Guus Hiddink is the "semi final man" because his teams always go out at that stage.
