No, blaming the ref is the correct standpoint. /sIs correct. From an Argentina standpoint the failure of Higuain, Messi or Palacio to take one of them chances was the difference in my opinion.

go argue with them then, and don't use it as an excuse to belittle my opinionsOle and at least 50 000 argies. http://www.ole.com.ar/mundial/argentina/Calentura-penal_0_1174082920.html
Now concerning those points I agree with you 100%. It was a tough game to win for Germany because of Argentina's quality. It wouldn't have taken much and it could have been Argentina's Cup. Team Argentina were a worthy and deserving finalist.still i think Messi was better than most posters say he was, that argentina deserved to be in this final game and that if we had scored some of the chances we had we would have lifted the trophy
He was good in the group stages became anonymous by the quarter final. He may as well have went home before the match with Switzerland because he didn't show up then or since.i think that the best team won, that germany deserved to win this
in fact, before the game i was begging not to concede more than two goals,
and i'm delighted with the fact that argentina went to brazil -our archirival- and play the final game
would i have love to win the cup? of course, but i'm not stupid, i know there was a very slim chance of that
still i think Messi was better than most posters say he was, that argentina deserved to be in this final game and that if we had scored some of the chances we had we would have lifted the trophy
excuse me for being an argie
thank you mateNow concerning those points I agree with you 100%. It was a tough game to win for Germany because of Argentina's quality. It wouldn't have taken much and it could have been Argentina's Cup. Team Argentina were a worthy and deserving finalist.
exactly, some posters would have love to see us do what brazil didWould have been fecking stupid to try and outplay Germany though. You've got to play to your strengths.
Messi was always a danger, we never controlled him as well as the Dutch did. And yes you gave us a good fight, especially in the first half you were the better team some of the counter attacks cost me more nerves than I would have liked.i think that the best team won, that germany deserved to win this

I thought you got your tactics spot on and only failed because of shit finishing from several players.exactly, some posters would have love to see us do what brazil did
is like saying "germany played boring because they did everything to prevent messi from scoring"
They didn't have to try very hard.exactly, some posters would have love to see us do what brazil did

yes, but i also think that germany was the best team through the whole cup and they deserved the victoryI thought you got your tactics spot on and only failed because of shit finishing from several players.
You asked who, so don't use it as an excuse to attack me.go argue with them then, and don't use it as an excuse to belittle my opinions
good for you!They didn't have to try very hard.
They were deffo the best team but that doesn't mean you have to suck their cocks. They were there for the taking and it would have been interesting to see them needing to come from behind.yes, but i also think that germany was the best team through the whole cup and they deserved the victory
and, seriously, to have played this game in brazil, was more than i was hoping for
so you are arguing with "ole" news paper and not with me, rightYou asked who, so don't use it as an excuse to attack me.
Well they didn't exactly change anything in their tactics. 7 man defend and hoof a long ball forward for one of the three attackers to get on to. Okay they definitely made out our left defensive side with Höwedes and Özil to be a weakness but that was as obvious as anything from day one at the world cup but still cudos to Argentina for being the first team who really tried to exploit this.I thought you got your tactics spot on and only failed because of shit finishing from several players.
They didn't thou, they allowed him far too much freedom for my liking. I thought Argentina's tactics were spot on and Germany was playing a little risky. If Argentina had they shooting boots on they could've won. Missing all those chances in a final against Germany is criminal - I can't remember Neuer making a single save.exactly, some posters would have love to see us do what brazil did

He didn't even hit him with his knee, more like with his ass, and he clearly got to the ball first, so bad luck for Higuain, end of story.As far as I know the keeper only gets the protection from refs in the 6 yard box. Sure, Neuer hits the ball but smashes Higuain with his knee, which in my opinion is dangerous play.
bad for you!good for you!
No thats not true. Protection for GKs comes from the fact that when they have their hands going for the ball they have no way of protecting themselves with their arms or hands. its also why GK when going for high balls raise a knee. If the ball comes over from the GK's left he will raise a left knee as he jumps, if it comes from the right he will raise a right knee as he jumps. The problem is that this is taught by every GK coach on the planet so the knee raising is instinctive. Players can use their hands and arms to protect themselves when challenging for aerial balls.As far as I know the keeper only gets the protection from refs in the 6 yard box. Sure, Neuer hits the ball but smashes Higuain with his knee, which in my opinion is dangerous play.
what is your freaking problem?bad for you!
I'm just responding in kind. I made the very real, very valid point that Germany didn't really have to bother with Messi too much and your reply was fairly petty. I just responded in the same vein.what is your freaking problem?
You know why Neuer smashed Higuain with his knee ? Because Higuain leaned his head towards Neuer.As far as I know the keeper only gets the protection from refs in the 6 yard box. Sure, Neuer hits the ball but smashes Higuain with his knee, which in my opinion is dangerous play.
i see. you are an idiotI'm just responding in kind. I made the very real, very valid point that Germany didn't really have to bother with Messi too much and your reply was fairly petty. I just responded in the same vein.
He didn't even really hit him with the knee it went pretty much right past him and it was more like his ass that knocked Higuain down. But let's be honest if two player run into each other and one gets to the ball first and the other one doesn't get to the ball at all the collision that follows is seldom called in favor for the one who didn't get to the ball at all and with good reason. Otherwise all you would need to do to get a foul as an attacking player would be to throw yourself into every ball you could possibly reach.You know why Neuer smashed Higuain with his knee ? Because Higuain leaned his head towards Neuer.
If Higuain would not have leaned, Neuer would not had caught his head with the knee
Frikkin Higuain was trying very hard to get a penal, that is why he leaned his head that way.
He tried very hard to make the colision before Neuer could get to the ball, as that would have indeed been a pk. Laughable that some here are trying to make him look like he was a victim.
I'm not an idiot at all. If you want to discuss football, rationally, we can do that. If you want to throw your toys out of the pram, I can do that too.i see. you are an idiot
sorry
Exactly my point from hours ago: Higuain had not the slightest chance to get to the ball. And he knew it. He took into account to be hit. He got up immediately to ask for a penalty. When he didn't get it, he went down again in pain. 90 seconds later he was reborn.You know why Neuer smashed Higuain with his knee ? Because Higuain leaned his head towards Neuer.

no, i dont want to discuss football with you, as i said before:I'm not an idiot at all. If you want to discuss football, rationally, we can do that. If you want to throw your toys out of the pram, I can do that too.
There's nothing idiotic at all about suggesting that Messi wasn't a real threat tonight, or even since the quarter finals. The occasion was just too much for him. Not a big deal, though. He's still a very good player, at club level.
There's only one person looking like an idiot in this thread and it ain't me, kiddo.no, i dont want to discuss football with you, as i said before:

okThere's only one person looking like an idiot in this thread and it ain't me, kiddo.
Stay Classyok
good luck
Yes, forgot that he got up almost immediately. If he was hit with the knee in the face, he would have been like Kramer.He didn't even really hit him with the knee it went pretty much right past him and it was more like his ass that knocked Higuain down.
Absolutely. Neuer got to the ball, Higuain did not, and Neuer did not impede higuain to get to the ball, before he himself got to the ball. End of story.But let's be honest if two player run into each other and one gets to the ball first and the other one doesn't get to the ball at all the collision that follows is seldom called in favor for the one who didn't get to the ball at all and with good reason.
