Puyol's first action after the final whistle? He doesn't run to celebrate with his squad, he immediately goes to console and shake the hands of every german player. What a treasure of international football.
SgtPrice1000 Our Eternal captain
He was a true gentleman
that is the only well-known footballer ,than never fought in the Pitch,huge respect for Lion Heart!
Huge respect...love him
El captian
Xabi Alonso, Xavi and Iniesta together in a team in this form is unfair.
Don't forget busquets
that trio was the key
Actually Villa did almost all the goals and a great tournament
And david villa and ikar casillas and puyol...
ishanya tapkire yes but Iniesta,Cxavi,Alonso were by far most immportant ones.They dominates midfield against every team and send amazing pases to Villa
quarter final won by villa goal
semi final won by puyol goal
final won by iniesta goal..
old golden days ❤️❤️❤️
Sanjana Roychowdhury AND ALL OF THEM ARE BARCA LEGENDS.
Villa was not a barca legend. Infact his barca career was not that successful and only lasted 3 seasons, where he was underappreciated. The 10/11 season he was amazing tho.
Javad Goudarzi underapreciated??he have so wonderful career at barca..and his age is problem..and barca just buy sanchez to back up villa..he is one of the reason why barca is called best team ever that time..today our attacker is superior than past attackers..but as a team,villa era with pedro xavi and abidal is better..
jimmy laa I know villa is an amazing player but out of 3 years at barca he was injured half of the time. Most of the 12/13 season was on the bench. Honestly i don't think his age would effect him that much barca was the best in 2010/11 I miss those days...
And casillas in the final saved them
Puyol was one of the best defenders in history.
lmao i smell salty german fan
yeah, it's as hard as being forward.
Oh because I suck at Football but I think being Forward is a lot harder than Defender
+LionRS2014 then why are you here Your Just Mad Because Germany Defense sucks
We'll I remember watching it and finding it a big disappointment 6 years ago tho but Germany won the world cup anyways so doesn't really matter
That's what happens when barca and rm team up
Torrens1996 is it your first time watching football.Every team have their good time and bad time no matter how good a team is.They won world cup and European cup twice.That's was their good time now its their bad time.No player or team can be in their best form in all matches.Brazil were humiliated by Germany.at present Brazil is strongest team.That's life and that's football
Torrens1996 yep this is definitely your first time watching football or you are just dumb.I said no matter how good a team is they can't always be in their best form.of course barca and rm players can also lose.they are not god to be perfect all the time.When they are in their form they bring world cup and various trophies when they are not,they lose
Torrens1996 They win world cup that's what I meant in my first comment
This was Barca lol.The most influential players to Spain‘s world cup team were Xavi,Iniesta,Villa and Puyol...all Barca players
When they were in their prime
Spain just deserved their star on they jersy in 2010
they were by far the best team in the cup yes.
+Ryan Wiebe Baron they lost against Switzerland in gruop stage, and almost all their victories were by 1 goal of diferente.
Netherlands were the TRUE BEST TEAM, but spain won the final, that's all.
+Mike Pachón netherlands deserved 4 red carda in that final
+Sr. Ader Nobody cares It was ref mistake but i like netherlands
+Ryan Wiebe Baron Won by luck and casillas wc
Puyol to Pique: OUT OF MY WAY, KID!!!
Diego Herrera He always scold pique

@ETShermTheWorm nope. Hes a bottler now. Puyol never bottled.
@@bernaa845 if Puyol was playing that liverpool match he would totally scold his team for being careless.
As a German I have to admit:
Spain was brilliant. They truely deserved the title.
So did Argentina.

The greatest Spanish defender of all time, the greatest captain of all time.
yeah I agree I'm from Spain, Spain Has Had Many Great Players But I agree Maybe Iker is next
Laxatives Dre you’re joking😂😂
Laxatives Dre you know puyol also won many trophies? Ramos is a disgrace, nothing special. Puyol is 10x the player dogmos will ever be.
I totally agree, even though one of my favorite teams is Real Madrid, I loved puyi, he was a great sportsman, so competitive and so nice and great to see.
LMAO! So that makes Paolo Maldini the greatest goalkeeper of all time?
Puyol always been so underrated. The man would use his whole body to make sure that no goals would be scored
One of the best ever..
This Spain squad was legendary!
Yh
Yeah, the current generation is kinda doodoo. I guess because it's new but, when i watch them i don't feel the feeling of the Spain that i know. I'll still support them though
@@deankeefezafirino17 currently Spain is favorite to won wc
@@lolimscared8319 eyo, things changed huh XD
I truly forget how OP the Spanish National team was from 2008-2012. 2 Euro championships and a World Cup championship. Pretty much like 80% of the team were in their prime and tiki taka was used so well. Man. Good old days. I remember being amazed as a kid watching Spain in the 2010 World Cup. Truly something special
Wouldn't say OP. They were amazing but they went to penalties against an aging Italy team in 2008, required a missed penalty against Paraguay in 2010 and settles really late against Germany and Netherlands, and needed another shootout in 2012.
@@blackmamba3060 Spain weren’t known as a team that scored a lot of goals but the way they played their matches.
@@blackmamba3060 envy through your veins
@@blackmamba3060 you have acknowledge their defense, however. They shut down a hot 2010 German team. In that WC, Germany had 4 goals vs Australia, 4 vs England, 4 vs Argentina, 3 vs Uruguay…. Against Spain, they could barely create chances
If they had Messi in that squad they would've dominated the international scene for years to come.
A one-club man, one of the most humble player in football, and definitely one of the best captain in Barca history.
The best captain of Barcelona
Puyol - pique and ramos at defender
casillas : drinking coffee
lol but that was not the case practically, the players found a way through the defense a lot of times but casillas always managed to stop them
ramos and pique wasn't at their peak at that time, spain defense was leaky as hello. puyol is the one keeping it together for spain during those years.
just imagine messi took spains call and went and played for them instead of the ungrateful argentina. he wouldve already been called the best of time.
@Za Dom Spremni! If Messi would have been part of the Spanish team there would be no doubt that Messi would be the greatest of all time and also Spain probably would have turned the greatest national team ever.
Farkle definitely agree
Franco Jedvaj But Haters will say ‘but he didn’t play for his national team’ and Ronaldo did.
He is still the greatest but yes he would have been invincible. This Spain side made so many chances.
Without a doubt
I like how Spain had a lot of Barcelona players in their team, FC Barcelona had the best players of the world in 2010.
Imagine if messi played for Spain
sarthak joshi then he would have won many international trophys
To bad that Argentina doesn't have a decent manager
*Mr. Nobody* Inter won the treble that year with Zanetti, Walter Samuel, Cambiasso, and Diego Milito. And guess what? Maradona didn’t put them in the first team because he is a Napoli supporter (Inter’s rival in Serie A) and put Tevez and Higuain instead of prime Milito.
@@elmachotracho7963 put feeling first before logic

This Spain was, at least for me, the best football team ever... Great quality, amazing plays, and the perfect players.
It's impossible to improve that midfield. Xabi Alonso, Busquets, Xavi, Iniesta, Fábregas, Silva,...
The defense and goalkeeper were also one of the best in that years : Ramos, Piqué, Puyol and Casillas
And, in terms of offense: Villa, Torres, Pedro,...
Simply astonishing, and that's why this amazing team won two eurocups and a world cup in a row, one thing that no one have done before.

That puyol header with Sergio Ramos celebrating mad with him and pique is one of the greatest World Cup moments ever imo
Ramos should have been sent off already. His foul that should have been a red isn't included in this video unfortunately.
@@Johann757 Which foul?
what a team this spanish side was. no one can match the talent and footballing ability for decades to come. grateful to witness them play live.
Germany was good already in 2010, but Spain was unreal. Arguably one of the top 3 national sides of all time, together with Hungary 1954 and Brazil 1970. The full magic of the Barcelona midfield with Busquets, Xavi, Iniesta on display, plus Xabi Alonso's intelligence and Ramos' dynamism. The Barca fullbacks and behind them Casillas kept things tight at the back.
The only thing Spain was missing was a top notch center forward - somebody who could have taken Messi's or Ronaldo's role. Villa and Torres did not quite match up. So Spain won matches 1-0 they should have won 3-0 or 4-0, and the midfielders and defenders had to score the goals.
Villa scored most of the goals in the World Cup so he really was the best they could get Torres did nothing
That's too far to say Spain is top 3 all time.. They got lucky in most of those matches if not all of them! Italy 2006 was a way better team than them
+Bryan Sanchez Not my view. I agree that Italy in 2006 had a fine team that is generally underrated. But they were close to losing to the US and Australia early on - not necessarily football powerhouses - and won the semi (against a mediocre Germany, compared to 2010) and final only after nail biters that could have gone the other way just as well.
True is that Spain won many matches only 1-0 in 2010. But if you saw these, you know that their opponents still had no whisker of a chance - as they did not get the ball. This semifinal is a point in case. And it's not only 2010 for Spain, it's also 2008 and 2012. For half a decade, the furia roja dominated world football as few national teams have. One can of course debate whether it's top 3 or 5 or 10, but I for my part am sure that when our era will become history, this team will be counted as one of the greatest national sides of all time.
+herodot2 Italy only allowed two goals at that WC 1 was an own against the U.S which ended in a tied and the other goal was the penalty of Zidane! That mediocre team of Germany was great just had bad luck! Spain lost their first game, won against Honduras and barely won against chile.. And only scoring 8 goals while Italy 12.. Italy was a better team back then there was a lot of more international competition that's why Spain ended up dominated from 08 to 12 which only is 4 years compare to Brazil that dominated from 94 to 2007
Bryan Sanchez Germany in 2006 was "great"? Ouch. There were players like Borowski, Odonkor, Neuville and Metzelder in the line-up who today wouldn't make Germany's C team. Now 2010 had Mesut Ozil, Thomas Mueller, Manuel Neuer, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Sami Khedira - the nucleus of the 2014 team. Ozil and Mueller alone injected a pace and variability into Germany's game that was badly missing in 2006. The only significant players in 2006 who were good enough for 2010 were Phillip Lahm and Miro Klose (Schweinsteiger was very young and a subsititute in 2006 who, when he played, played on the wings)
And it's not how many goal a team makes or conceded in a WC. It's how they play. Italy was a no-show in 2006 until the quarterfinal, were in grave danger against teams they should control. Then they found their groove, and played with a beautiful, understated class that rightly won them the WC. But Spain in 2010 controlled their opposition. If you saw that match against Switzerland you will know it was a freak result, the Swiss grouping around their box for 90 minutes and having ONE chance to score from a long ball. What Spain did with a classy Germany in this semifinal must go down as one of the most stunning performances in World Cup history.
Btw, Brazil dominated from 1994 to 2007? As I recall, Brazil was twice shredded to pieces by Zinedine Zidane alone in this period."Domination" is different. 2006 Brazil was one of the weaker Brazilian teams in history. In any case, I don't know a team that would have dominated world football for longer than 4 years. Actually, only 2: Brazil 1958-62, Spain 2008-12. Perhaps Hungary 1951-54.
this spanish squad was unreal
Spain from 2008 to 2012 will always remember in football history
Can we talk about how high Carles Puyol jumped? He was the same height as Pique in the air and Pique is 6’4. Raw determination from Puyol. If it wasn’t for this upset Germany probably would have won this World Cup instead.
Yeah crazy that he only scored about 1 goal every 50 games but he headed this rocket in just when Spain needed it. I just got him in my FIFA team so thought i'd check out his highlights
Back when Spain tika taka was effective
Got to give it to Captain Tarzan with the amazing header!!!
Spain definitely deserved that victory, visça España!!!
Es viva España no visca cara espárrago
Loris Karius so the 7 players aren’t Catalan you fool only 4 are
miss this spanish team 😭
You forget Sergio Ramos was a right-back 👀
He was rapid too
U forgot he cheated too.
You forgot that pique and puyol are much better than him
Gerard Piqué pique is a joke lmfao
not gonna be a joke when he gets his 2 world cup my guy
It's Spain vs Germany once again in wc 2022 🔥🔥
Na Argentina is winning this year🇦🇷🇦🇷
Remember that game. Very heartbroken, but we deserved to lose.
Germany had a good young team, but we where just too green at that time and spain had an unbelievable team, with the influence of FC Barcelona.
4 years later, most of them where much more experienced, like Kroos, Neuer, Boateng, Müller and also with experienced players like Lahm, Schweinsteiger and Klose and newcomers like Hummels.
Still, while Spain did not play with alot of goals in mind, they certainly where the best team of the tournament and certainly can be described as one of the best national sides ever.
spain won with an offside goal against portugal, paraguay also had a goal controversially disallowed. spain was nowhere near the strongest national teams of all time. overrated
@@davids2742 35 matches unbeaten and 3 major titles in 4 years.
@@davids2742 Against Paraguay, Spain deserved a penalty they did not get. Also, a legit penalty goal was not given by the ref so they're even. And that offside goal against Portugal was extremely close, not far from being onside so stop crying 11 years later. Spain deserved that title because in every position they had a legend. Even the substitutes consisted of legendary players. They are nowhere near overrated.
You forgot Özil..
Just seeing this after Spain's painful exit from the Round of 16 2022.
Its because spain doesn't play the beautiful football they once used to play.
They don’t have the players they once had to run that heavy possession play style lacking strikers that can finish
Because now they play Spaniards instead of Catalonians.
Puyol the heart of a lion❤
Forwards in massive form
Extra ordinary skilled midfielders
Reputed defenders
number one goalkeeper at the moment

Classy puyol! i'm a madrid fan but after the game puyol went to every single german athlete for a handshake and to comfort them !
True Legend
Puyol is one of the greatest legends in Spanish football history
03:09 Pique jumped behind Puyol to shield him from German defenders
Germany had a strong team storming the other teams in previous games by scoring 4s against teams like Argentina, England and Australia, but Spain managed this game to control the ball and prevent the Germans from having it.
Spain did not look very solid in previous rounds against lighter teams because all those teams played purely defensive against them. They exploded this game and deserved a game they controlled.
Simply Spain was at its peak, and Germany was just on the rise, where they would reach their peak 4 years later.
Saw the match and was totally amazed at the domination of spain..What a team that was..
Casillas and his whole team including coach and supporting staffs all are bestest legendary
First world cup I watched in my life
As a Real Madrid supporter this man was definitely one of the best of all times! Definitely had all the traits of a top captain
Quarter final won by Villa
Semi Final won by Puyol
Final won by Iniesta
All made Barcelona proud
What made this Spanish team incredible was not only the unmatched collective quality of their team at the time, but the chemistry they had together. They were a unit that exhibited spirit, passion, intensity and above all an effective footballing philosophy at which they were all inordinately proficient: Tiki-taka. No team is ever unbeatable, but this Spain team were about as close as it gets. They won the 2008 Euros, the 2010 World Cup and the 2012 Euros during era of unconscionable supremacy. Nobody can deny they were one of the greatest international sides ever.
A few days ago Germany won the world cup and Spain was humiliated in the group phase. How things change. Never give up!
mktzvxp true
Never give up
And now Germany was humiliated in the group stage lol

I think Puyol was trying to make up for the header he missed in the first half. And he did so! As for the Germans - for once they actually had to play some difficult teams on the way to the Final. Good on them for eliminating England and Argentina but even the "mighty" Germans weren't able to get past THREE difficult opponents in a row!
But they had chances against Spain and only Lost 0:1 against Spain which was the result of Puyols Header !😁

Germany had a harder route than spain though.
In 2014 and 2006 we actually had hard enemies aswell

Spain playing just beauty....
Golden generation of Spanish football history 😊 I miss this 11 😥 I am from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 but supported Spain because Germany knocked out my team Argentina 😫
I was only like 9 years old during this World Cup and didn’t know much about football. But looking back, man did Spain have a legendary team🤯 almost all from either Barca or Real Madrid too. Just the type tiki-taka that went on all working as a unit. So majestic!
I still remember watching this back in 2010
Xavier Hernández Creus, AMAZING.
best spanish player ever
@@Vodriorap Iniesta is Spain's most complete player ever. - Xavi
Spain will never have another team like this, sadly
Just watched a World Cup documentary on Spain. Fun fact from xavi here for puyol’s goal. Xavi said puyol scolded him after the first half saying “can’t you see that all the German players are just standing there when you put the ball in the penalty area?” To which Xavi replied, “in the second half, the very first corner we get, I’m going to give it to you”. 2nd half came, GOAL from Puyol.
I cannot express enough gratitude to the great players of this Spanish team that won 2 European Championships with a World Cup in between. You made El Sueno (The Dream) come true for Spanish fans of a World Cup victory and more. Thank you Casillas, Iniesta, Xavi, Xabo Alonso, Fabregas, Villa, Torres, Puyol, Ramosand to so many other players and coaches.
Spain's a great side but I don't think there will ever be a Spanish side as good as we saw in 2010. So many great players with great skill.
One of the best semifinals ever seen. Spanish side was incredibile, I remember they missed a lot of clear occasions in this game.
Este a sido unos de los mejores juegos y gol de los mundiales que he vivido, grande Carles Puyol....
