It was expected Brazil would lose. They just had their tournament dreams killed on home soil in a humiliating fashion. There wasn't enough time to emotionally recover from that. The first goal by Netherlands crushed their already feeble spirits all over again and made the match unsalvagable.

Germany 3-1 Argentina. Klose will score again.

Di Maria, please come back to make this final more interesting.

Just for the Europeans out here, the Argentinian are for Latin Americans like the French are for Europeans.

Spain winning it four years ago was a fluke also.


Yep, Euro 2008 and 2012 were also flukes. 



Germany 1 - Argentina 0

German midfield will be to strong for Argentina to handle.
I'm rooting for Argentina, would love to see Messi rewarded for his hard work for the sport,
But I think Germany will finally end their trophy drought tomorrow.
Anything can happen but I feel like this will be the result.



If Germany keeps its defense well organized there is no chance that Argentina will win. They can be as defensive as they want but Germany will score at some point. If all else fails, there are headers.

Winning a European Champisonship is not the same as winning the World Cup.  Even the Soviet Union one it once and was runner up three times but they never did much in the World Cup either.  Another good example is Greece they won one 2004 historically even the US has done better in the World Cup then Greece.

The problem with the Euro is that there aren't many teams. You need a lot less luck to win it. I don't think it's possible to win a WC by a fluke. I also don't think you can win the 3 biggest tournaments in a row by a fluke. Spain played a lot of games like shit but they still earned their victories because the other teams always played even shittier. It's less that Spain were lucky to win and more that their opponents didn't have their shit together.
