Germany vs Spain Preview
There will be at least one European representative in the Final of the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa, after Germany and Spain go head-to-head in the second semi-final on Wednesday evening. The match gives the Germans the opportunity to avenge their defeat to a Fernando Torres goal in the final of UEFA EURO 2008. No less than 19 survivors from that game – eight Germans and 11 Spaniards – will be on show in Durban, yet much has changed since that night in Vienna.

Germany reached the semi-final stage by dismantling Argentina 4-0 in the quarterfinals and England 4-1 in the round of 16. Spain just squeaked by Paraguay in their quarterfinal and Portugal in the playoff round by identical 1-0 scores.

Germany and Spain do battle in their World Cup semi-final on Wednesday, but who do the history books favour? Can Miroslav Klose and/or David Villa make history in Durban?
