Barcelona defender Carles Puyol's powerful header lift European champions Spain to its first-ever FIFA World Cup final on Wednesday, beating Germany 1-0 in the semis.

周三，巴塞羅那后衛(wèi)普約爾一記強勁的頭球頂破對方大門，幫助歐洲冠軍西班牙隊以1-0在半決賽擊敗德國隊，挺進世界杯決賽。這也是西班牙隊史上首次晉級決賽。

"We deserve this but we want more," said Spain striker David Villa, who is tied with Netherlands playmaker Wesley Sneijder for the tournament scoring lead with five goals each. "We are happy to be in the final, that was our objective, but now we want to be champions."

西班牙前鋒維拉（目前與荷蘭中場球員斯內(nèi)德位列射手榜榜首，各有5球進賬）說：“這是我們應(yīng)得的，但我們不會滿足于此。能晉級決賽，我們非常高興，那是我們的目標，但現(xiàn)在，我們想要的是冠軍！”

"We've shown that in the big moments we can grow even more," Villa said. "We should have scored more goals, but one from Puyol has put us in the final."

“我們的球隊已經(jīng)向世人證明，越是到了關(guān)鍵時刻，我們就變得越成熟，”維拉說，“這場比賽中，我們本該多進幾個球，但普約爾的一粒入球就把我們送進了決賽。”

Andres Iniesta's dribble earned a corner for Spain and onrushing Puyol jumped high to hammer Xavi's cross into the net in the 73rd minute.

比賽進行到第73分鐘，伊涅斯塔在對方底線盤帶，為西班牙創(chuàng)造了一次角球機會。角球由哈維開出，普約爾上前沖搶，高高躍起，一記頭槌，將皮球砸入球網(wǎng)。

In previous World Cup finals, Spain's best result was the fourth finisher in 1950.

回溯歷史，西班牙隊在世界杯決賽階段的最好成績是在1950年取得的第四名。
