Italy midfielder Simone Perrotta had a header on target in the 19th minute that goalkeeper Iker Casillas caught on the first bounce.

Six minutes later, Spain striker David Villa's 25-meter free kick was saved down low by goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon at Ernst Happel Stadium. While teammate David Silva struck a left-footed shot from 25 meters that just went wide of the post in the 38th.
