Spain vs Chile in the 2010 FIFA World Cup semi-final in South Africa. It's half-time in this big semi-final and the second half kicks off with Chile leading 1-0. Then at the kick-off, the striker passes it back to the defender Arbeloa for Spain and he dribbles it in a unique style and passes it to the CAM (Central Attacking Midfielder) Andres Iniesta and Arbeloa is in the box and he rounds the defender and a one-two pass to Xabi Alonso and the Chilean defender slide tackles him and gives it a big penalty to Spain. Before the big penalty was taken, the referee gave the Chilean defender a yellow card. Arbeloa takes the penalty right in the top of the net and it is fully deadlocked at 1-a-piece. The Spanish supporters make a thunderous roar, like a tiger roaring in Bengal. Then at 1-all Arbeloa is trying to push the tackler down and makes a spectacular pass to Spanish striker Pedro and a one touch shot near the post and it is saved by the goalkeeper and out for a Spain corner. Xavi the Spanish corner taker makes a great air pass and Iniesta headers it in the bottom right corner and not deadlocked anymore. Then a dash of thunder was red and in yellow it said 'SPAIN RULES'. It was 2-1 to Spain with 1 minute left and then the ref blows the whistle for full time and Spain win 2-1. The Man of the Match was Andres Iniesta who made Spain get in the final against the Netherlands while Chile are in the 3rd vs 4th playoff.
