CASILLAS BAGS BEST GOALKEEPER AWARD


Spain captain Iker Casillas admits that the achievement of winning the World Cup will take time to sink in.

The Real Madrid goalkeeper lifted the trophy as the European champions sealed a 1-0 extra-time win over Holland. Later, he was announced to be the Best Goalkeeper of the tournament to receive FIFA Golden Gloves.

Casillas now concedes that it will be some time before the players can truly appreciate the significance of their 'historic' win.

Casillas, largely the quieter of the two keepers, made one tremendous save in normal time when he denied Arjen Robben after the Bayern Munich star raced clear.
