Eventually Germany is going to score on one of those crosses. The defense in the box has been fine, but you can't keep letting Mueller lay those balls in there from the right side.
On the other hand, those contras from Argentina have been good. Except for the last five minutes, Argentina was probably more dangerous overall, despite the fact that Germany has been controlling the ball (well what the fuck else is new...).
Good game!

In the slo mo you can see that this was not incidental. The one checks him into the shoulder of the other. That sort of pincer movement would be the luckiest coincidence ever.
@nebu entertaining only if you are neutral, nerve racking over here.

Higuan just can't catch a break. Blowing chance, offsides all the time, and the Neuer comes out and plays Superman on his ass, and Higuan gets the foul. Not his day.

Please please please someone score a goal in the extra time. I don't want to have to watch penalty kicks.

Yeah. Both play good. Would feel lame for whoever would lose to penalty kicking. Edit: It's astounding how interesting a game with 0-0 can be. |

Seriously think he is part Italian the amount of flopping he did. Oh well, Argentina's "star" forwards Aguero and Higuain blew so many chances. Congrats to Germany. |

He wasn't flopping, he was working his ass off and getting clobbered. Not in a dirty way, but clobbered nonetheless.

Yeh he's not a diver in fairness, man of the match tonight. Argentina manager, what was he thinking taking Lavezzi off? He was the key to stealing a win. Well done Germany, best team won in the end.

Yea, that was a yellow card all day. It doesn't really matter if it was by accident or not, you're responsible for your body. |

I called it after halftime, Lavezzi meshed better with Messi than any of the other 3 forwards they played in the tournament. Aguero played like shit even before he got hurt, and we saw the floundering of Higuain and Palacio tonight. |

Grats to Germany! Well deserved.

Just FYI, Berlin is on fire right now.
Deutschland Deutschland uber alles, uber alles in der Welt, etc. etc.
Seriously, the fireworks have been going for an hour and I doubt they'll stop within another 2. Even well outside the major celebration zone downtown (the "fan mile"), everyone is in colors.

Good game. Lots of tough defense by Argentina but really you can't keep that kind of wall up for 120 minutes against a team like Germany. You have to do more than just try to counterattack. It still ALMOST worked because Mascherano is a fucking BEAST and Garay and Demichelis didn't fuck it up too bad. Plus Romero does seem a good keeper even if he can't get in his club's starting team. That Goetze goal was just magic.
The Aguero punch on Schweinsteiger I don't think deserved a yellow even if it did put a dot on that man's eye. He's going for the ball not the man. Could I see it being a yellow? Sure. I'm sure if he hadn't already been booked, it would have been. Schweinsteiger just got the shit beat out of him in extra time, no flopping needed.
Messi really didn't play that well, Higuain has no excuse for shanking that gift of a goal or being as offsides as he was on the one he managed to get in the net. Aguero was pretty useless and Palacios - I'm not sure who thought he could handle that but maybe they were distracted by that fucking stray hair his barber missed.
A deserved win, and thankfully it didn't go to penalties.

This. Soccer can go back to being followed by Europeans and the 3rd world for another 4 years. |
