It really was the end of an era. It felt like it

>Le dead inside man

ah yes the great Martin Demichelis, benchwarmer at Manchester City and the great Sergio Romero, 4 matches for Manchester United in 2 years.

what a fucking shit team

Romero always played well for the NT you pleb

This, there is a just such a sense of finality bound up in this goal for me but I can't quite explain why. I always find myself coming back to it.

Anyone playing in a World Cup final is there for a reason.

>what a fucking shit team
objectively wrong, I don't understand why there are many people who forcefully want to believe that the argentine NT has bad players

unironically one of the greatest nights in my life
the atmosphere on the streets afterwards was something I have never experienced before in my life, it was surreal

he may have become lazy and fat afterwards, but I will forever be thankful to Götze for making this happen on that special night

They have now. In 2014 they had a solid team

no

the absolute fucking state of your life if you think that this is when football peaked

why?

I don't really know to be honest. Like the Portuguese user said it just seems to mark the end of an era for some reason.

dully noted, dully rejected

Based, this and 2006 are the wc finals that I will never forget.

Proud socker fan since 2014: the post

What a shit trophy

dumb mutt. did you even read my post?

the only people claiming that the 2014 argentina team was shit are people trying to make excuses for messi not winning the cup

>missi

lol look up the penalty shootout vs the netherlands before talking shit about romero

dumb mutt

OG trophy was stolen by a "french""man" so go figure

Getting shit shoved down your throat by AFA supremo and messi isn't a valid reason tho

The era of Spain/Germany goes to an end, the playstyle had changed

>a crystal egg
>a bunch of flagposts
>the fifa world cup trophy but the ball is offset
>a fleshlight powered by dr. pepper

Argentina: Sporting CP, City, Benfica, PSG, Barcelona, Lazio, Porto, and Monaco

Germany: 7 players from Bayern Munich, 3 Dortmund, those two teams met in the 2013 champions league final

it's no contest who would win.
it's a travesty that Argentina even had the best chances all game and still failed.

What the flying fuck were the two CB’s thinking?!
>WC Final
>Literally one attacker in your final third
>Let him stroll in between the two of you while you both ballwatch

WHAT THE FUCK?!! Jr grade shit, biggest game of their lives and they both though the other was marking him instead of telling one or the other to pick him up

shut up, don't waste my time with your drivel, third worlder

The final 5 minutes of Italy v Germany in the 2006 world cup was peak football

>best Serie A striker
>all seasoned well disciplined players
>ref that gave zero red cards to the butchering Argentinos (one German with concussion, several with bleeding legs)
>vs a team with no left back, no defensive midfielder, and a midget sòyboy """captain"""
The absolute state of messòyfags. At least fagnaldo won a tournament with much worse players.

They weren't in a world cup final for nothing user. Even a team memeing themselves into the final match requires consistency.

>real life facts = errors
lose weight
have sex.

Literally on his left foot and he still missed. Shambles

lmao
just look at how this fucker literally dodges the ball instead of facing it like an actual gk, if we had another keeper in the final we probably wouldve won
hes one of the worst we've ever had, and the pk shootouts was a fluke

once again Twain blows the messi dickriding reddit refugees absolutely the fuck out. You are truly doing God's work my man.

Messi=Me
Trophy=Happiness in life

>implying my japanese doll is not a side hoe

We have literally have a Messi banner, go back mutt

>all he can do is flagpost like a triggered lil bitch
