The World Cup Soccer Final: Netherlands vs. Spain

With Sunday's Final pitting the Netherlands against Spain, there will be a new country's name joining the seven already engraved on the bottom of the FIFA World Cut Trophy. While this year's edition of the quadrennial tournament is the 19th, there are only eight nations who have won soccer's biggest prize, counting this year's champion.

Both the Dutch and Spanish like to dominate possession and press the attack, which should make fore an open and exciting final. The match kicks off at 1:30 p.m. Please see our World Cup Soccer Bars Directory for great places to gather with other fans to watch all of the action unfold.
