FINAL - Germany vs Argentina

The Argies had their chances in the first half but couldn't take them. That Higuian chance early was massive.

From a completely neutral standpoint, Germany have been the most likeable team. Or at least the most difficult to hate. Haven't playacted as much as the others and humiliated Brazil, who were absolutely the least likeable.

Well played both sides. Can't begrudge Germany the win, but Argentina played a great game and had more than enough chances to win it. If they were a slightly better side, or had Aguero been fitter/sharper they probably would have as well.

Columbia were pretty likable and I honestly think if they'd got past Brazil they could have won. Chile were pretty good too.

Yeah, Colombia most likeable team for me, certainly played the most exciting football throughout the tournament.

Thoughts on the Messi not an ATG without lifting the WC talk? Load of rubbish for me, you only have to look at what he's achieved at club level to see how good he is. Not his fault the Argentinian side have either been average, or had a ****house manager to go with it. Still one of the best players of all time imo.

I didn't mean in general re Gotze. Said before the semi he should have started ahead of Ozil, and it was dismissed, due to him apparently having a **** tournament. Fixed that tonight!

Definitely his fault not burying that chance he had in the second half though.
