The Czech though they had the opener until Cesc Fabregas intervened

Though Spain dominated nearly the entire game, they had their hearts in their mouths in their half of the pitch midway through the second half. A rare Czech attack resulted in a corner.

It was taken short, and a fabulous delivery into the box was flicked on by Theodor Selassie towards goal. Everyone around the stadium thought that was going in, only for Cesc Fabregas to hook it off the line and away to safety. Spain were living on the edge, and Fabregas got them out of jail.
