Spain’s one and only World Cup victory came in epic style behind the heroics of AndrWith Spain and Netherlands caught in gridlock and all signs pointing toward a penalty kick shootout, Iniesta found himself in the right place at the right time and snuck a shot past Dutch goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg.
