Spain looks to Tame Tunisia on Monday at the 2006 FIFA World Cup

Spain hopes for more
FIFA World Cup against Tunisia on Monday.

Spain striker David Villa hopes the 4-0 thrashing of Ukraine in their opening Group H clash in Leipzig will be the start of a long run of success at the in 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany.

Villa scored two goals in the romp as Spain, who usually flatter to deceive in major tournaments, made the best possible start to the 2006 FIFA World Cup competition.

"I'm very pleased with the goals and in particular for the win for Spain," he said.

"We got in front from the corner and in the end had a great game.

"We hope it will be the first step in a good FIFA World Cup campaign for Spain. We gave our all today, the fans have enjoyed themselves and I hope it continues like this."

Spain literally destroyed Ukraine, giving hints that they are really setting their goals as high as the FIFA World Cup final game.

Spain made it 4-0 in the 81st minute with the move of the match.

Carlos Puyol picked the ball up on the halfway line and continued his charge towards the area as he laid the ball off to Marcos Senna. The ball was then knocked back to Puyol who cushioned a header into the path of the onrushing Torres who smashed a volley past the beleaguered Shovkoviskiy.

It was a comprehensive win for the Spanish in terms of both scoreline and performance and, on this evidence, it may just be their year.

But how often have you heard that?

On Monday, Spain is hoping the same kind of game will smile at them once they wage war with Tunisia on Monday at the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany.
