Fun facts about the final:

No team has ever defeated the same team 3 straight World Cups.
No European team has ever won the World Cup in the Americas.
First time 2 teams have met in the Final for the third time.




We will get to see Germany be the first European team to win a cup in the Americas.

Or we will see the ultimate troll in World Cup history for Brazilians.

Also seeing Messi a great individual player win the World Cup and put his name up there with Pele & Maradonna.

I'm excited

Very interesting facts. Here's another. Sabella hasn't lost a match against european teams with Argentina (10 played)

Intersting didn't know about this. 

In those 11 games they also have 19 goals and have only conceded 6.

Argentina are also playing a friendly vs Germany in 2 months in Germany.

Great final for sure.
