Spain's roster includes the "who's who of international soccer stars from the likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Chelsea," and almost any player on its team can score a goal, according to the New York Times.

The Netherlands boast a fascinating mix of veterans such as Robin van Persie and Dirk Kuyt, and rookies. It is not clear if the team's coach, Louis van Gaal, will rely more on experience or youth.

Spain has won its last three major international tournaments, a feat that has not been done before, the Times reported.
