QF: Germany vs Argentina

[MB20]

Horrible half.
We have a big problem in the midfield.
We need Veron out there to keep possesion of the ball.
Germany deserves to be up by 2 goals.

I hope we can turn it around.

Pretty good game by Germany so far. I don't understand why the Argentinians move so poorly, to be honest. Still, they got better at the end of the half. And I think Germany will concede a goal sooner or later. Of course, the Argentinian defense looked shaky as well.

After the first 15 minutes I thought we were gonna lose by 10, luckily the team improved after that, too bad we couldn't weather the storm early in the game. Argentina is playing way too long (that means with a lot of distance between the defenders and attackers), that allows Germany to play way to comfortable on the middle, we need to fix that. And get Veron and Pastore in there for Di Maria and Maxi Rodriguez right now. Messi the only one showing something good for us so far.

I agree, Veron and Pastore should be a nice change of pace.

Messi can do everything but he can't score to save his life in this WC.

I blame the ball for that, he said that he had to adjust his shooting style 'cause this ball won't spin like the other ones, look how in Barcelona he always shoots with the inside part of the foot priorizing placement over power, and now he hits it with the upper part of the foot trying to give the shot more power.

Germany >>> Argentina so far. The only reason we aren't 3-0 right now is because they can't finish for , but their attacks have been clear, organized and they have picked our defense appart. We on the other hand are hoping either DiMaria, Tevez or Messi manage to beat Germany on their own practically. Granted their defense isn't that pretty either, but we're expending enormous ammounts of energy trying to get a shot in while they get to ours in 4 or 5 passes. Its ridiculous.

They're defending with 9 guys. I don't care what you do, it's going to be hard to break them down.
We need more pressure and like DAF said, a couple of guys like Veron and Pastore to make the through pass.

[DAF86]

come on man....

You're right, I blame you and your jinxing fantasy team.
