00:00The referee is Rodrigo Badia from Costa Rica, setting the game in motion.
00:06And Spain in the all-white strip, attack from right to left as we look out here.
00:12Spain certainly played very well against Germany, they could easily have won the match,
00:16but at the end had to settle for a 1-1 draw.
00:19A goal from Goikachia, who also scored in the opening game against the Koreans.
00:24The other scorer, Julio Salinas.
00:28Bolivia against Spain from Chicago, a place in the second round at stake.
00:32Needless to say, another piping hot afternoon.
00:38Going here to the Bolivians.
00:42The linesmen from Bahrain, Al Gattam and Sanchez.
00:49Remas with the pass.
00:51The Bolivians play neat and tidy football, but didn't really have enough touch when they had that 5-12.
01:01Off the bar, to Urquicay with them by Robayo.
01:07So, an early scare for Spain.
01:11Terrific drive that by Robayo.
01:13They're threatening again now, the Bolivians.
01:15Attacking in very positive vein at the start of this match.
01:21The first chance of the game goes to Bolivia.
01:24It remains scoreless.
01:25There is the coach.
01:27It's good quarter.
01:29There's all of that Spanish football.
01:31Here's the corner.
01:32And the header goes wide by Abolado.
01:33And the market was a little slack then at the back from the Bolivians.
01:34It's whipped over by Guardiola and Sandy.
01:35The Bolivians.
01:36The Bolivians.
01:37It's whipped over by Guardiola and Sandy.
01:38The Bolivians.
01:39It's whipped over by Guardiola and Sandy.
01:40The Bolivians.
01:41And we are no top-line for Susuz Arrento.
01:43And the top-line for the game.
01:44And there are no great goals at the back.
01:45And there's the corner.
01:46And the header goes wide by Abolado.
01:47And the market was a little slack then at the back from the Bolivians.
01:49It's whipped over by Guardiola and Sandy.
01:55And the header looks going to become another Bolivians.
02:00And we no problem for Susuz Arrento.
02:06The tallest man on the field
02:14He did want to get his header in there
02:16Carlos Borja
02:17Most camp player in Bolivian history
02:22He's now towards
02:2580 appearances for his country
02:27He's only ever scored one go
02:34Now again the Bolivians are threatening
02:39But Succa is way off the target
02:44Failed off to Felipe
02:50Far away
02:53But he's found a surgery
02:55Now Guardiola
02:56There's Guacatia
02:59Trying to shake off Ritba
03:01Caminero with the cross
03:05Well the Spanish players
03:07Claiming a penalty and it's given
03:09It didn't look like a push
03:11At the far post there
03:13Bolivians claiming it should have gone the other way
03:17For Lupe
03:18As the player tumbled
03:20Locked by Caminero
03:22Now who was the culprit there
03:25Well
03:25The referee has pointed to the spot
03:28Because I think the offender was Borja
03:32As he challenged with Felipe
03:35The referee absolutely adamant
03:38He has not even listened to the protest of the Bolivians
03:41Struko is incest
03:42All of the Bolivians absolutely furious
03:45The World Cup greens may be shattered
03:52In this game
03:53And Guardiola
03:53Josef Guardiola
03:57Of Barcelona
03:59He has the chance to give his team
04:03For the lead
04:03Trying to retain his composure
04:15Against the peddler from the stadium
04:18Struko
04:26String himself on the line
04:28Here's Guardiola
04:37With the kick
04:38He scores
04:44But Struko
04:45Hasn't come up
04:46The ball from going in
04:49We've seen some excellent penalties
04:52In these World Cup finals
04:53That was just about the person
04:56I think the people's got to saving one
04:57One of your smiles among
05:00The Spanish fans
05:02Josef Guardiola
05:05Opens the scoring for Spain
05:07Let's see from the replay here
05:15How close Struko was
05:16Not that he quite put his foot to the ball
05:19And he was certainly committed the other way
05:21But the ball more as in the centre of the goal
05:23If he stayed where he was
05:25He would certainly have saved it
05:27Spain have the early advantage now
05:33To make it survive the chance at the other end
05:36Almost at the start of the game
05:39And Romayo
05:40Hit the bar for Bolivia
05:41Coming up to 20 minutes played
05:44Spain in charge
05:46Well, the referee hasn't given it
05:50As we now go up to the third minute of injury time
05:57Very much dispossessed
06:00Bolaro striding purposefully forward
06:04And the whistle has gone again
06:08I think this time it is for half-time
06:12There's the tangle with Sergi and Saria
06:17Look like a foul
06:18The referee saw it differently
06:20The half-time ends with
06:23Leo Clemente's team in front
06:25Thanks to the penalty
06:27Struck home by Guardiola
06:28After a foul on Felipe
06:31Bolivia
06:31Their best chance coming very early on
06:34When Romayo
06:35Hitting the crossbar
06:37Zubisareta stranded
06:38That's the half-time situation then
06:40In Chicago
06:41Spain
06:42Who have to win to be certain of going on
06:44Leading Bolivia
06:45By a goal to nil
06:47Welcome back
06:48As the second half
06:49Is about to get underway
06:50At Soldier Field in Chicago
06:52The Bolivians
06:53Now kicking from right to left
06:57Spain have made a change at half-time
06:59They've brought on the realm of nuclear
07:00Fernando Hierro
07:02We're at number six
07:04Just looking round to see if we can spot who has come on four
07:09He has been a regular in the Spanish side over the past
07:13A few campaigns
07:15Didn't make the starting line up for this game
07:20Now on for the second half
07:24Spain leading by Galdanil
07:29And Galdanil
07:31Guardiola
07:32That's a foul by Ferrer
07:35Whose foot was high on Romayo
07:36And Clarence too, the Spanish defender
07:38Is a lot smaller than Romayo
07:40And it did take a bit of an uneven bounce then
07:44But it is a yellow card for Ferrer
07:51His first of the competition
07:56And the ruling from paper is single yellow cards
08:01Will be wiped out
08:02They're winning us for the second round
08:05As Zubisareca has to scramble across
08:08No foul by Ferrer
08:23Marco Sanchez
08:24Ah, there must be danger here surely
08:27Oh, dreadful finish by Romayo
08:29What a letdown
08:31Oh, so many good reports about Romayo coming out of Bolivia
08:37Left by Salinas
08:39For Ferrer
08:40Certainly they can't feel totally comfortable Spain
08:45With only a one goal advantage
08:47Trying to force another one here
08:48Caminero
08:49Up the post
08:50Oh, he's pretty disgusted with himself
08:56He really should have scored there
08:59As the Bolivian defence was carved apart
09:02The goalkeeper was committed
09:05Good covering though by Spain
09:08Hierro
09:08Caminero
09:13Sergi
09:19It's a good run by Sergi
09:22Touchdown as well
09:23Caminero
09:24Now it's two
09:26Denied earlier by the post
09:30But not this time
09:31One of the best moves
09:34That Spain have put together
09:35At this match
09:36And it was delightfully finished
09:40By Caminero
09:41And surely now
09:46Spain can look forward
09:47For taking their place
09:48In the second round
09:49A really well-constructive build-up
09:53And Caminero
09:54Applies the finish
09:56Excellent work by Sergi
10:04Just touched on there for Caminero
10:08And Pruko had cut racing out of his goal
10:11And couldn't prevent the shot from flying past him
10:14The goal coming
10:1720 minutes into the second half
10:19Sanchez now
10:21Took an inflection
10:22And the goal
10:23They responded straight away
10:25Well, that has given them heart now
10:31And just when you felt
10:34Spain had the game one
10:35Neatly tucked up
10:38Back come Bolivia
10:39Sanchez with
10:41His team's first goal
10:42In the World Cup Finals
10:43And maybe now
10:45We've got a match on our hands
10:46It certainly was deflected past
10:48A stranded Zubi Zaretta
10:50The Bolivians aren't too worried
10:55How they score
10:56Just delighted that
10:58Last they had managed one
10:59So, it's 2-1
11:05Two goals
11:06In the space of, what, 90 seconds
11:08I would think
11:09Now, let's put some fresh
11:16Life into those Bolivian legs
11:18Melgar
11:24Sanchez
11:27He will claim the goal
11:29That's the goal now
11:37That has the Bolivian fans
11:39Singing
11:40In jubilant fashion
11:42And they're certainly not able to watch it
11:45Went back by
11:47Ronald Romayo for Castillo
11:49There's much more zest about Bolivia
11:54Greatly encouraged by the goal
11:59Zubi Zaretta
12:02Such an experienced figure
12:03In goal for Spain
12:05The captain, of course, of his national side
12:10Yes, like a cheer
12:12Now Salinas
12:13Caminero
12:17Two waiting in the middle
12:19One of them was Guerrero here
12:21Sergei
12:27To Becquero
12:29Ferrer
12:32Caminero
12:37Goal
12:38A snow flag
12:39And it's three for Spain
12:40And two goals
12:43For Caminero
12:44And surely now
12:50Surely
12:51Bolivia can't come back again
12:54Caminero
12:55The hero of Spain
12:56He's had an excellent game for them
12:58He's hit the post
13:00He's scored twice
13:02He's been a driving influence
13:04And as the Bolivians
13:07Field in vain
13:08For the offside flag
13:10Caminero
13:11Was not asking questions
13:13Just simply
13:15Finishing off the job
13:16Beyond Trocote
13:18And it's
13:21Three-one for Spain
13:22And they're coming forward again now
13:23With Caminero
13:24Goicachia
13:25In for Salinas
13:27Away though
13:27By Peña
13:29Satchez
13:36For Bolivia
13:37Whose hopes have been diminished again
13:41Melgar
13:43Castillo
13:48And they've had their moments
13:51Bolivia in this game
13:52They've had opportunities
13:53They've only taken the one
13:56And surely now
13:59It's not going to be enough
14:00And surely now
14:02It's not going to be enough
14:04A rocket challenge
14:04By Guerrero
14:05The fair one
14:06Decides the referee
14:07Satchez
14:11Persisting
14:12Now Castillo
14:14And by Satchez
14:18Borough
14:19With the intervention
14:21On them by Vaquero
14:22For Salinas
14:23Satchez
14:29Trying to slip past
14:31The tackles
14:32A chance for Moreno
14:34Good save by Zubis
14:35All set up
14:39By the run
14:40Of Satchez
14:41I have a thought
14:44An offside there
14:45As Moreno
14:47As one of the third place
14:48Teams
14:48Trucco
14:57Has he kept that in
14:58Oh he just
14:59Oh they've got a mistake
15:03Buick a cheer
15:04Is this going to be four
15:05Well blocked by Trucco
15:07Guerrero
15:08With four Spanish players
15:10In the penalty box
15:11Still Guerrero
15:12And almost a touch on
15:13By Salinas
15:14I think
15:15He may have been rolled offside there
15:17What were they thinking of
15:19At the back
15:20Bolivians
15:20So nearly caught out
15:24And while Salinas
15:27Was
15:27Melgar
15:36Castillo
15:41Subisareta
15:44Lost it
15:45And just over the bar
15:47For Rubio
15:48Moreno
15:50Scalic
15:50About to set up a chance
15:53Isso nearly scored there
16:00And eventually Rubio
16:02Just over the top
16:04Subisareta
16:08Came for it
16:10But without too much confidence
16:12And Spain
16:16Were lucky then
16:17To survive
16:18Less than 30 seconds
16:24For 90 minutes to go
16:25Then it's just a question
16:26Of how much time
16:27Is on the watch
16:28Of the Costa Rican referee
16:30Camidero
16:33Is at another strong game
16:35For Spain
16:35I think we'll take
16:41Some dislodging
16:41From the side
16:42Now
16:42Can come in
16:44As a substitute
16:45For the opening game
16:46Camidero
16:47Two goals
16:48At this one
16:48Hierro
16:51Can you do exactly
16:56Where Chukot was
16:57We're into injury time
17:01Melgar
17:03Sanchez
17:07For Melgar again
17:10Down he goes
17:12But no foul
17:13Guerrero
17:18This is
17:21Goikachir
17:22Who's bursting runs
17:26Have certainly exposed
17:27The Bolivians at the back
17:28But he hasn't capitalised
17:30On it
17:31But he's not a goal
17:33So he could have
17:34Set up others too
17:35And out goes
17:36Tenia
17:37That's a foul
17:37By Camidero
17:38Can't really see
17:43What he's complaining
17:43About there
17:44Camidero
17:44He quite clearly
17:45Brought Tenia down
17:47That's not a foul
17:51I don't know
17:51What is
17:52It's a yellow card
17:56For Camidero
17:57That's a second
18:03Of the competition
18:04Too
18:05Hierro
18:09So that will mean
18:13Camidero
18:13Will be suspended
18:14For the next game
18:15It's only the single
18:17Yellow cards
18:18Just the one booking
18:19That will be wiped out
18:20For the next phase
18:23That's the people
18:25Ruling now
18:25There have been
18:26A little bit of confusion
18:28About it
18:29Any player
18:32Book twice
18:33In the first round
18:34Will miss the next game
18:35Any single bookings
18:41Will be erased
18:42It's all over
18:48And Spain are safely
18:51Through to the next round
18:52They've beaten Bolivia
18:53By three goals
18:54To one
18:54At least the Bolivians
18:56Will go home
18:57Having scored a goal
18:58Only one point
18:59As the two coaches
19:00Meet in the centre there
19:03Camidero
19:03Two goals for Spain
19:04And then foolishly
19:06Getting cautioned
19:08Right at the end
19:08And that will mean
19:10He will miss the next game
19:11That Spain will play
19:12In the World Cup Finals
19:14But his two goals
19:16Added to the penalty
19:17From Guardiola
19:18In the first half
19:19Have proved enough
19:21Just the lone reply
19:23From Bolivia
19:24A deflected shot
19:24By Erwin Satches
19:25That gave them
19:26Renewed hope
19:27But in the end
19:28Could not prevent
19:29Spain from going on
19:30They will be
19:31First or second
19:32In the group
19:32Depending on the other result
19:34Germany against Korea
19:35The Germans were
19:36Well in control
19:37So it looks as if
19:37They're going to top the group
19:38With Spain taking second place
19:40The final score
19:42At the Soldier Field
19:43In Chicago
19:43To the euphoria
19:46Of the Spanish fans
19:47It's victory for them
19:48By three goals to one
