the referee

[ManuLoco]

That missed call on the penalty on Higuain. Red and a penalty... Damn, Germany played much better today and during the whole tournament (they deserve to be champions), but I really feared some major mistake against us would happen today.

[Jodelo]

What? :lmao

[Muser]

Ummmm what

[ManuLoco]

Look, I give credit where it is due. Germany deserved to win. I like teams that go for the win and not teams like Argetina today. Yet, that was the wrong call. Pretty much like the penalty on Voller 24 years ago. When a crucial call can go either way it never goes to our side.

[resistanze]

OP is a faggot

Are you seriously saying Argentina always get fucked over?!? :lmao

You talking about when Neuer played the ball and THEN hit Higuain? :lol

[ManuLoco]

ok, man, whatever. Germany won and Argentina didn't. To me that was a penalty, much more clear than the 1990 WC on Voller. But, well, nothing will change the fact that Argentina lost so there's no point in arguing with you guys. Congratulations to the Germans.

[ffadicted]

:lol

[ElNono]

starting to sink in... although 1990 was the first time and it actually stung... Germans better enjoy it, it's hard as fuck to win this thing

[Infinite_limit]

Ya I think he is HAHAH

Half the German team is crying. They realize the magnitude

[ManuLoco]

:lol

Brazilians can't laugh, no matter how ridiculous my opinion may look to you. Brazil was embarassing. At least we didn't get gangbanged.

[Jodelo]

Delicious tears.

lol don't be bitter

[ManuLoco]

I'm not bitter. If I were I would be saying Argentina deserved this, when they didn't. Germany played great and dominated the whole game. I get bitter when my team loses a game they deserved to win and this wasnt the case. I just think that was a penalty.

[elemento]

Argies calling the ref card

:lmao

[ElNono]

just stop, the ref was fine... heck, Agüero should've seen the red before the game was over

[ManuLoco]

Spurs fans never call the ref card, right? "oh, oh, it's impossible to get the ball and shoot with 0.4 seconds!!"

[Jodelo]

I'm not bitter. If I were I would be saying Argentina deserved this, when they didn't. Germany played great and dominated the whole game. I get bitter when my team loses a game they deserved to win and this wasnt the case. I just think that was a penalty.

You are the ONLY one who thinks that, but have fun with that.

[resistanze]

Higuain's one on one. That's it and that's all.

[SAtown]

and Palacio tbh

[ElNono]

You are the ONLY one who thinks that, but have fun with that.

it's actually all over the front pages in Argie newspapers...

[Jodelo]

it's actually all over the front pages in Argie newspapers...

How pathetic. That was never ever a foul. He played the ball and then crashed into Higuain.

Is there something written about Aguero?

[Sportstudi]

That missed call on the penalty on Higuain. Red and a penalty... Damn, Germany played much better today and during the whole tournament (they deserve to be champions), but I really feared some major mistake against us would happen today.

Butthurt much? You can't be serious.

[ManuLoco]

Spanish newspaper, not argentine:

http://www.marca.com/2014/07/13/futbol/mundial/alemania/1405280994.html

There were many calls that went to Germany. Aguero should've seen the red card. That's the only one we got.

[Sportstudi]

Seriously, quit making excuses. Your team was lucky to have still 11 players on the pitch in the end. Both Agüero and Mascherano should have been sent off after getting a second yellow.

[ManuLoco]

ok guys, whatever. I'll go back to reading the forum as I did the last 9 years. Perhaps we'll see again in 4 years. See ya!

[resistanze]

Higuain's one on one. That's it and that's all.


and Palacio tbh

[Infinite_limit]

Argentinians on ESPN also believes it should have been a Red Card. Can someone explain the thinking?

[elemento]

Really Argies? Calling the ref card ? Pathetic, no offense. :lol

Some people can't lose. In 2006 Argentina started a huddle after losing in the penalty shooutout. I remember Heinze being a complete asshole back then. But I have to say that this doesn't mean every Argentinean fan loves to complain. Guys like ElNono in this forum took it like a man, congratulated without any bitter comment. :toast

[Brazil]

:lol dat thread

the referee ? Really ?

[Virgil]

just stop, the ref was fine... heck, Agüero should've seen the red before the game was over

It was a penalty. Penalty and a red card because Neuer was the last man.

Like it or not.

Same with the foul of Howedel against Zabaleta, that was red card and ejection

Germany was the best team in the tournament, but it wasnt better than Argentina today.

[Virgil]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYkXQGwvCI0

Watch it and then tell me it wasnt a foul

[Jodelo]

He plays the ball. No foul!

Höwedes was a YC, hard tackling but not a RC. How about Mascherano and Aguero?

[Virgil]

You know, playing the ball doesn´t mean you have a white card to do whatever you want. Read the rules before talking nonsense.

If I play the ball but put my knee on the others player head is a foul. Period.

[Jodelo]

Knee was high, true. But again, he was first and CLEARLY played the ball first. What should he do? Go away and let him score? He can't get invisible. But agree to disagree i think.

What about Aguero and Mascherano now?

[Virgil]

That´s what I mean. The referee had not a good game, lots of bad calls. Among them, one penalty that wasn´t called.

[Jodelo]

Dodging the question per par. Referee was solid, not more, not less. Missed calls on both sides!

[Virgil]

Mascherano and Aguero, the same with bastian schweinsteiger, who deserved double yellow card.

Bad calls, for boyh sides, althought Argentina didn´t make any penalty. Oh, and I don´t remember what german player also fouled Aguero in the area, but Aguero ran the ball and didn´t fell to the gorund.

[Sportstudi]

The ref wasn't good, but that wasn't a penalty.

You are wrong. Ask any pro referee. Really, ask.

[Jodelo]

Schweinsteiger a 2nd YC? For what? Playing the ball fair against Messi late?

What a fag :lol

[Virgil]

Same when I lift my foot too near of the other guy face. Doesn´t matter if i play the ball or not, that´s a foul.

[Virgil]

Schweinsteiger a 2nd YC? For what? Playing the ball fair against Messi late?

Whatever, congratulation for a well deserved tournament. But same as Italy 90, the final game was a won with a little help.

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol cryin already...gtfo clowns, losing to a guy with a babyface

lol playin that shit kent kun who did jackshit, spent more time walking then messi

lol hiquan = tosb

[Sportstudi]

You are wrong. Ask any pro referee. Really, ask.

My father was a pro referee (no kidding) and he disagreed. He said that it was a hard tackle, but the decision to play on was acceptable. Should have been throw-in for Argentina though. Higuain didn't foul Neuer.

[Sportstudi]

jajaja, very convenient. If true, your father would be wrong.

[Virgil]

You cant go to the ball charging your knee against other players face. You cant.

[Virgil]

cocky german, nothing new.

[Sportstudi]

jajaja, very convenient. If true, your father would be wrong.

Seriously, you're such a sore loser, I don't know if there is any person around here who's more bitter. And my father was a pro ref, it's true. And I believe him more than you. And that's it for me, it's senseless to argue with a sore loser who cannot accept a different opinion.

[resistanze]

:lol Why are you arguing with this idiot?

He's either incredibly bitter or simply trolling.

[Blizzardwizard]

No era penal.

[ElNono]

Knee was high, true. But again, he was first and CLEARLY played the ball first. What should he do? Go away and let him score? He can't get invisible. But agree to disagree i think.

Let's be fair here, you wanted a penaldo for Germany in the 1st half on a similar play... heat of the moment, tbh :lol

[elemento]

There was also a foul on Muller inside the box on a corner where a CB holds Muller's t-shirt but that ref gave the foul to Muller.

Don't see anyone talking about it tbh.

Props to the Argies that are not sore losers. Ole calling the ref card to justify the loss was pathetic quite honestly. They should blame Higuain, Messi or Palacio. They lost that shit.

[Bynumite]

It's the WC final. Refs have a tendency to adopt extremely loose criteria, especially when penalties and red card situations are involved.

De Jong murdered Xabi Alonso in the 2010 final and he saw a yellow card.

Anyway, i dont want to argue. I am not bitter, not even southamerican.

Bottom line is: the FIFA have to start implementing tv reviewing, just like the NBA, NFL and ATP. Its absurd if they don´t. There is no romanticism in allowing the bad calls when you have the technology to know better. Its just absurd, and opens the door to conspiracy theories.

Huh? When? Where?

[dfens]

imo the refs couldn't be better, and this was a tough game to control.

The ref let them play a bit rougher (neuer higuain, aguerro schweinsteiger, ugly ugly tackles) but that's his style of refereeing. See his other reffed matches.

[dunkman]

It was a penalty, one German YC should have been red direct, but one can't expect the refs to bail you out. Argentina had the game won with 3 mano-a-mano's. Overall Germany was better and deserved to win, Götze's goal was fantastic.

[Sportstudi]

Huh? When? Where?

I guess he meant that scene where Garay bodychecked Kramer (who suffered a concussion, he said he doesn't remember anything from the game). That was a move you usually know from ice-hockey. If you say that move by Neuer was a penalty, fine, but then that one from Garay should have been a penalty as well.

Oh ok. Yeah, same action as with Neuer and Higuain. Either both are penalties or neither is one!

[urunobili]

1990 was the first time you witnessed it, 1930 was your first final loss tbh

Yeah, that one. It's accidental contact. Garay gets the ball, and the German dude didn't see him coming. I have the exact same feeling about the Higuain play.

[Infinite_limit]

I asked my friend who played Professional Fussball

"No call. You enter the box (he was in) you are in GK zone"

So what´s the difference between the small and the big area? Cause the small area IS the GK zone....
