FIFA World Cup in South Africa:
Quarter-finals:
In Cape Town: Germany 4–0 Argentina BBC Sport
In the most lopsided quarter-finals match since 1966, Germany defeat Argentina at the same stage for the second straight time, and reach the top four for the third successive time and 12th overall.
Germany become the first team ever to score four goals in two matches against former World Cup champions in the same tournament, and the first team since Brazil in 1970 to score four goals in three matches.
Miroslav Klose scores twice and joins countryman Gerd Müller in second place on the overall top scorers list with 14 goals. He also becomes the first player ever to score four goals in three World Cup tournaments.
Argentina suffer their biggest defeat in a World Cup Finals match since they lost to the Netherlands in 1974 by the same score.
Brazil and Argentina both fail to reach the top four in a World Cup outside Europe for the first time ever.
In Johannesburg: Paraguay 0–1 Spain BBC Sport
After both teams' goalkeepers save penalty kicks within two minutes, David Villa scores his fifth goal of the tournament and puts Spain into the top four for the second time, having done so only in 1950.
Spain become the first reigning European champion to reach the semi-finals since France in 1986, and will meet Germany in a re-match of UEFA Euro 2008 Final.
Three European teams reach the top four in a World Cup played outside Europe for the third time in history. The previous occasions were in 1986 and 1994.
