Del Bosque and Iniesta so happy

The winner came courtesy of Andres Iniesta after 116 minutes, but Del Bosque, who was given the bumps by his players, felt Spain were worthy victors.
"It was a very difficult game, with only three or four clear opportunities, but we deserved to win," he said.
"It's a very happy day and everyone on the bench and everyone on the pitch all played their part.
"We haven't had a single incident to distract us over the course of the tournament and we've all got on superbly well as a team."
Goalscoring hero Iniesta, who earned Spain their first ever World title to go alongside their European crown, dedicated his goal to 26-year-old Espanyol captain Dani Jarque, who died of a heart attack last year in training.
"It's incredible," said the Barcelona star, who was overcome with emotion at the final whistle. "This is dedicated Dani Jarque [Espanyol Captain], my family and all the Spanish people.
"It's been a lot of hard work over a long time to get to where we are today."
