That's unfortunate. I wanted it to be a tie. Argentina didn't deserve this win.

All those 4-0 and 5-0 predictions.

Under 10 minutes to go, let's see if they can hold them off.

Yep. Anyone that predicted a draw here deserves 1000 points.

Not a draw...anymore. Still GG. Props to Iran for holding so long.

Now argentinians are gonna be cocky. Iran played incredibly good, they deserve recognition.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Why isn't Di Maria getting a yellow for playing on time?

@Justinian. When I practice tennis and I play against the guy who compete in big tournaments, our coach always tells us "they're the big guys, they're nervous and feel the pressure (of losing against amateurs)"
That's what's happening to every big team this WC.


I suppose that could be a factor. Yet, I think a team like Germany would have dispatched of the Iranians since the first half.

Nope. Weak teams are our weak point. We will dispatch Portugal and Argentina one day and lose against US the other day.

You sure? I know you are German so I am not arguing too much.. but looking through the records I don't see Germany losing to many lesser teams in a World Cup final. Maybe in Korea.

Messi saves the day. My 2-1 prediction is the closest :p

Screw you Messi, Argentina did not deserve to win this match.

We didn't deserve to win. But we won, and that makes me all tingly inside. Suck it people.

DAMMIT!!! Iran should have won!! I hope they'll win against Bosnia so that they can secure second place since I don't expect Nigeria to win against Argentine and hope for a tie again later today
