Argentina 3 Germany 2
Don't care who wins as long as it is a great game. Pity I shall be on a train throughout it!
I can't wait for this match, this is an antecipated final. I am even going to have my lunch in a shitty restaurant just because they have some decent TVs.
Germany will beat the neighbors. ![]()
I'm even missing five-a-side this arfternoon for this one... Can't wait, should be, if I can borrow the term from Jack for a moment, MINT!
2-1 Argies...

All you lucky buggers are in the pub, ain't you. :\ohwell:
1-1 at 90 mins.
I actually cheered a German goal ![]()
Shame Heinze and all the Argies are fighting everyone on the pitch; means the TV isn't showing any pictures of Fat boy Maradona crying in the stands ![]()

Got what they deserved! Argentina's coach should be sacked after that. Absolutely shocking substitutions. To try and defend a 1-0 lead for virtually the whole 2nd half was a disgrace. Riquelme wasn't having his best game, still set up the goal though, and while Cambiasso is a good player he's unlikely to open up a defence when required. To then replace Crespo with Cruz! That was just beyond belief. Surely Messi had to be introduced with an eye on ET. Sad thing is, Argentina for me had been the best team so far when they've played attacking football and i've no doubt that they would have won the tournament had they continued with being positive.

Yes, that was my thoughts, too. It remembered me on England vs. Germany 1970. England replaced their two best players in Mexico and lost the game after a 2-0 lead.

As a matter of fact I agree I didn't like the team after the 3 substitutions, we had no real offensive power. I don't agree with you about Messi, have you seen him watching anywhere except the match while he was sit outside? No way he could enter with that attitude.
Anyway Argentina played a bit better, but penalties are a lottery, and good luck was not on our side.

I wish I had.
I'd called it a month ago in the prediction sweep at work.
Basically what John Sluddon said ,yeah.They should have kept attacking.The Germans had more energy too.
The Argies were very ingracious in defeat but i don't know the whole story.One commentator said something about a German player kicking an Argie in the balls which started the ruck.So what's that all about?
Anyway , right ,who's got a pic of Maradona crying???![]()

Maradona wasn't there. A friend of him got no entrance. So he did go home with his friend instead of watching the game.

An Advantage for Germany in the Penalty shooting, was that Argentinas Keeper was injured. I've seen in TV, the german Keeper has a small paper with Argie's Shooter. The Argentina's Keeper had never thought, that he would play. So I think he wasn't prepared for penalty shooting.

Cufre from Argentina got the red card after the game by the referee.

Why do you call us "cheats" yet? Hand of God was 20 years ago. Have you seen the match today?
The only cheat was made by Ballack trying to get a penaly, he should have got a yellow card.

Yeah, if his dealer doesn't enter, he won't either.
