Argentina vs Germany

[El Turi]

Germany were outstanding. Argentina never looked like scoring whereas Germany looked dangerous every time they went forward. Thoroughly enjoyed that and it makes me feel a lot better about England's thrashing.

Holland v Germany for me too, now. Would be a great final.

I think the main thing about this German team is that it is like watching a tactical masterclass. It's fantastisch...

Admittedly, you have to have the players to make it work properly.

But they play the 4-2-3-1 to perfection. You have Khedira sitting, and Schweinsteiger picking out the passes; Muller, Podolski and Ozil creating havoc, and Klose up front, the ideal lone striker. The attack at any time can become a four, or even a five with Schweinsteiger joining in as well.

Schweinsteiger MoM today, he was superb.

Schweinsteiger was utterly brilliant and defo MoM.

Also, it's amazing how so many young German players have well and truly stepped up to the plate at this tournament.

Fantastic match and no commentary for the first half in the Jacobs Post, Burgess Hill for some reason. It was noticeable how the vuvuzelas do make for an intimidating, spooky atmosphere like Dynamo Kiev on a December evening. :vuvu2:

IIRC the only team to ever win the world cup after having lost a game in the group stages was West Germany/Germany in 1954.

And in 1974.
