Djabou scored a goal vs Germany tbh
Did someone check up on Manu's Magical Left Hand? Maybe the coca he was drinking in the Final thread became the coca he is snorting right now.
Messi's chance wasn't so bad. Higuain and Palacio choked baaaaaaaad.
This entire game is surrounded by this simple sentence. I am not a pro soccer fan by any means, but it really comes down to the team that misses that 1 chance almost never gets it back in a game.
Agree 100%, Argentina had those 3 mano-a-mano chances to seal the deal. I would understand that some defensive misses chances like that, but a striker? The first and only defensive mistake Argentina made during the game letting Göetze alone for a moment, it was game over. Sabella crippled the team with the Agüero for Lavezzi change, from there the Germans were better.
Messi is a great striker, but he can't make a difference from behind like Maradona. Definitely not with strikers and forwards like Higuaín, Palacio, Agüero or Maxi Rodríguez. Not sure where was Tévez? From the moment Di María went out, Argentina made no goals. No way they were to win the mundial like that.
it was a really tough loss, i was pulling for Germany but I felt bad for Argie supporters. those 3 misses were crushing, not to mention the goal that was (correctly) waived off. germany had the header clang off the post, but other than that never really got great shots on net. they had some chances but weren't able to get completely behind the ball, a lot of soft shots. especially the one from Kroos was pretty disappointing considering he nailed a similar shot against Brazil, with his opposite foot
Germany lacked the final touch in the 2nd Half and Extra Period. But they continued poking away. After every stop Neuer threw the ball forward to attack, which they didn't do in the Group Stage. Most likely because there was no Lahm on the Wing to spring forward
If you added up the total chances. Germany probably had 3 times as many as Argentina. Which was the story of the Tournament for Germany. Just keep poking away and eventually you get a lucky bounce, defense makes a mistake OR great offensive effort.
For example: Shots on Goal
Germany - 7
Argentina - 2
that's because Higuain/Messi/Palacio had bunnies that aren't credited as shots on goal you moron, and most of germany's shots were limp shots that basically rolled to Romero
Argentina had 3 chances (1 off German gimmie). The entire match. The rest of the time they spent camping out in their own zone
No, just no. Argentina had 3 face to face with Neuer chances. They had a bunch more (Messi going all the way to the goal in the 1st half, the Higuain offside goal, Messi blown free kick, and that's just off the top of my head).
Germany had the ball a lot more, but created just about as many chances as Argentina did.
, I know next to little about soccer and that dudes takes are horrid.
I come with statistics
They come with emotional perspectives
If he wouldn't be Polish, I would think he's trolling...
3 shots on goal in 120 minutes. Your team is pathetic.
How many goals in 120 minutes versus Netherlands? 0 goals versus Belgium after the first 10 minutes.
That's a-lot of Argentinian failure. 323 straight minutes without a goal.
not making the World Cup

EC qualifier > Friendly
messi and tevez didn't play in that game. in fact nobody did
Defender Pablo Zabaleta was the only Argentina player in the starting lineup who has also made the 26-man preliminary roster for next month's Copa America - the South American championship. All of the team's biggest stars were missing, including Barcelona's Lionel Messi, Carlos Tevez of Manchester City and Javier Zanetti of Inter Milan.
