Camera cuts to Wyclef, who clearly has a train to catch.

Feeling for Masch, tho. Human bank of four.

Rodriguez gets Golden Boot, no?

Argentina were very good. Can't ask for much more from a final, a couple more goals notwithstanding.

don't mind a low scoring match when it's a product of solid defensive play. unlike that dreck last match Argentina played in, this one was plenty exciting IMO
― Neanderthal, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:40 (eleven years ago)
Last two WC finals have been great.
Thank goodness, seen them all since '90 and they have been terrible.
And this is the best goal I've seen in the final.

Rodriguez gets Golden Boot but the Golden Ball is for player of the tournament

great final and im glad the germans won, they deserve it. mascherano deserves the plaudits before messi, who looked tired and a bit despondent throughout the game. HON THE WORLD CUP

xxpost yeah 2006's was aggravating as hell.
― Neanderthal, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:42 (eleven years ago)
Kinda want Neymar to get the Golden Ball tbh
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:43 (eleven years ago)
The refs could have been better, but maybe their not giving enough cards helped the tournament?
― StanM, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:43 (eleven years ago)
so this WC missed out on being the highest scoring all-time by one goal, if I understood correctly?
― Neanderthal, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:43 (eleven years ago)
xpost there were some definite muggings in this match though I didn't see more for one side than the other necessarily.
great game, both teams went hard

Argentine defense looked excellent to me, but they eventually wore down.
― frog latin (Aimless), Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:44 (eleven years ago)
yeah, it equaled France 98 in goals scored I believe
― Number None, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:45 (eleven years ago)
love the OH SHIT THIS IS HAPPENING look on babby goetze's face

Messi... The poor introvert. Showing no emotion whatsoever, yet sooo uncomfortable. With his soda bottle. And vomiting on the pitch. :-(
― In the airplane over the .CSS (Le Bateau Ivre), Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:48 (eleven years ago)
171 goals in 1998 and 2014, yeah

wanna give messi a hug

i blame Ashton Kutcher

Otm
Lineker et al so harsh on Messi, but when you compare it to how Zidane treated his WC finals, idk
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:49 (eleven years ago)
the winning goal was perfect, such a nice way to end the tournament
― gbx, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:50 (eleven years ago)
BBC already away from live broadcast? These are fine images tbh
― In the airplane over the .CSS (Le Bateau Ivre), Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:50 (eleven years ago)
I don't care for seeing Messi cry, his non-emotion is sorta moving...just seeing him stony faced...kinda there...alone.
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:51 (eleven years ago)
xxxpost yeah his first half flop resulting in PK was almost as terrible as the infamous headbutt.
― Neanderthal, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:51 (eleven years ago)
they're the kinds of easy cliches that are gonna get spattered about during a World Cup, forgotten for the next 4 years except as an excuse to beat flashy insubstantial foreigners with
― Daphnis Celesta, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:51 (eleven years ago)
Letting the Argentines suffer for this long is inhumane tbh

Xyzzzz that's what I meant too

They're talking over it LBI. Terrible not to present the runners-up medals instantly tbh.

aw now that's a touching visual
― Neanderthal, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:52 (eleven years ago)
but yeah, rough for the argies
Messi completely on his own again....

I dunno nv, there's something in it when you're talking about whether you belong in the top three of all time or just the top ten. More than anything it's that Messi's a bit knackered, I know that.
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:54 (eleven years ago)
lol stan
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:54 (eleven years ago)
did they come back w/ how many minutes Argentina went between allowing goals?
― Neanderthal, Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:54 (eleven years ago)
Could see Messi disappearing all together after today. Not to be heard of ever again, living on some desert island. Reading Sartre.

haha @ the statue for Neuer.

Ohhh so Messi is best player of the tournament?
Haha. Wow. Such sad. Much grief.
― In the airplane over the .CSS (Le Bateau Ivre), Sunday, 13 July 2014 21:56 (eleven years ago)
Messi as player of the tournament. Erm.
