Fernando Torres (Spain striker) believes Spain are getting stronger ahead of the World Cup semi-finals. But Torres is expecting a tough test against in-form Germany.
Spain striker Torres, who has struggled throughout the finals and could lose his place in Wednesday's match, is putting the team's success ahead of personal achievement.
Torres said: "I am very proud. It is the first semi-final for Spain in World Cup history so this team is making history again.We are so happy and looking forward.
"Hopefully the best will still be to come. I think we can improve and be much better. We have a massive game against Germany. It will be like a final. We know them. We are a very offensive team and they are maybe the most exciting team at this World Cup.
"They have scored four goals in the last 16 and four in the quarter-finals so they are very dangerous. But we will still have our chances against them. They will try to win, they will try to attack and so we can have more space to exploit.
"The main thing is that Spain can overcome Germany. It doesn't matter who scores. Hopefully we can do it and, if I have the chance to score the winning goal, it will be nice to do it again.
"David [Villa] has been very important for us, the key for Spain. He is scoring important goals, he gives us the opportunity to keep looking forward thinking we can win the World Cup. It has been his World Cup.''

The film was a major earner and his performance was praised by critics, with film critic Taran Adarsh noting, "Salman Khan is exceptional in a role that fits him to the T. He breathes fire in sequences that demand uneasiness. But beneath the tough exterior lies a vulnerable person and this facet in particular comes to the fore in the latter reels. His emotional outbursts are splendid...He subsequently continued his success at the box office, with comedies like Mujhse Shaadi Karogi (2004) and No Entry (2005).2006 was an unsuccessful year for him when Jaan-E-Mann and Baabul both failed to do well at the box office.

Angelina JolieANGELINA Jolie has told Jennifer Aniston to stay away from her kids!
The Tomb Raider star — who raises six children with partner Brad Pitt – was furious when the actor resumed contact with his ex-wife and has angrily insisted Jen keeps out of her young brood’s lives, according to a report in American tabloid the National Enquirer.
“Angie told Brad that it was one thing for him to hang out with ‘That woman’,” a source said, “but it would be quite another if he let her see the children.
“The last thing she wants is Jen trying to act like some kind of surrogate mother to her six kids. She cannot imagine anything more distressing — and at the same time she does not want any of them getting confused about what is happening to their family.
“Angie doesn’t want the kids — and particularly the ones who are too young to understand, like 4-year-old Shiloh — why Brad is spending time with another woman.
“As usual, Brad explained to her that his friendship with Jen is totally innocent — and all about business. She told him that’s fine and she accepts there is nothing she can do about it.
“But she said the kids might not be so understanding and might even get upset that dad was spending so much time with another woman who happens to be his ex-wife.
“She said they might get very confused and Brad should be smart enough not to put them in that position.
