Spain has won the first semi-final of the Euro 2012 on penalties after the match ended in a 0-0 stalemate.

Real Madrid's midfield maestro Xabi Alonso missed the first penalty for Spain. The Spanish goalkeeper Iker Casillas then pulled off a confident save to keep the scores even. Iniesta scored Spains second attempt to put his side ahead.

Spain struggles to beat Portugal 4-2 on penalties.

The teams then traded penalties until the fourth round when Portugese defender, Bruno Alves, struck the bar. Barcelona's Fabregas stepped up to score the winning penalty to take the tie 4:2 for Spain. The win puts the Spanish into the final where they will meet the winner of tomorrow's game between Italy and Germany.
