RM - HOL - Arjen Robben - 81 (90)
As soon as he returned to the Dutch squad after injury the side looked more balanced and more potent in attack. His dangerous left boot and marauding runs down the touchline were almost enough to see the Dutch lift the trophy.

ST - SPA  - David Villa - 89 (93)
With Torres misfiring, Spain's hopes turned to Villa for goals, he didn't disappoint.  Adding the cutting edge that spain desperately needed to convert their midfield dominance into goals.  His jinking runs cutting in from the left were some of most special moments of attacking play the World Cup saw.

ST - GHA  - Asamoah Gyan - 72 (85)
The Ghana Striker had some fantastic moments propelling his team to the quarter finals, his winner against the united states gave the tournament the African success story it craved.  His extra time  semi final penalty miss must have been crushing however his mental fortitude to step to take another penalty was impressive. 

ST - URG  - Diego Forlán - 86 (90)
Awarded the golden ball for his virtuoso performances, Forlan's stock has never been higher. Few players had such an individual impact, Forlan was Uruguay's catalyst, playmaker and goal scorer. A worthy winner and a much improved player.
