Final: Germany - Argentina 1-0(ET) - Germany are WC Champions for the 4th time

[Tomchin]

Argentina won 3-1 last time they met with Germany.

When was that?

Hopefully Messi finally will get some space to work his magic. Normally Germany will go for the attack, so let's hope there will be some space at the back.

Call me immature but, on purpose or no?

definitely not on purpose.

Argentina won 3-1 last time they met with Germany.

Come on, Messi!

I thought Germany beating Argentina 4-0 in the 2010 WC was when they met last time?

I think he's talking about the friendly that MAtS started and saved a Messi penalty in? IIRC Argentina won that, not sure by what margin though.

Nope, there was a friendly in summer 2012, where ARG won 3-1.

Messi can win the next World Cup, it's time this generation of German players crown their talent with the ultimate prize.

Nope, Messi's prime is now. He won't be able to make the impact he did this WC. He needs to get it now or never. Germany always has another shot.

This one belongs to Argentina

 

[Behrox]

One question Ryu, do you believe that Germans will be a bit overconfident coming into the Final? And if thats the case then we all know that Low doesn't have it in him to get them in the right mindset. I think the thrashing of Brazil in the semis just might be Germany's undoing this time around

Messi is older, so the other way around would be better.

Question: which kit will be worn in the final? So far Argentina has been using the home kit and no loss or tie this far. As much as I love the look of the away kit with the rich blue shades and golden badge but like to stick with what worked this far.

 

[raskolnikov]

Germany is the home team so they will be in white thus meaning Argentina will play in the dark blue kit.

Exactly. It took 24 years for ARG to get this far, no certainty of it happening again, or in a short span. Whereas Germans are more consistent and 've a knack of reaching the deep end of tournaments.

Just a note about that friendly. ARG played against a 10 man Germany for much of the game if I recall correctly. Wouldn't draw anything from it.

Germany deserves to win, they have been playing great football, none of their matches were boring, they are hungry for the victory. But I like Argentina more, so I'll pray for them. However, the chance for them to win is not that big in my eyes.
The Netherlands are out, that the best wc moment so far, I had promised myself I would stop watching football if Holland won the WC.

Don't worry. Germany will be all white. Messi will think is rm

Argentina's 2nd kit is awesome.

 

[GoobiePls]

Such a shame I will be in Germany monday a day too late would love to have watched this in Berlin.

Never thought I'd be cheering for Germans, oh well go Germany! Unless Argentina turns up and plays faster football then idc who wins.
