World Cup Match Day 25





It’s the finals  and it was between Germany and Argentina, Germany were looking to break their 24 year drought and crown it with a 4th world cup whiles Argentina were looking to win their 3rd world cup which would be icing on the cake for Messi. A lot was at stack and history somehow favored the Germans since they had beating Argentina in the last 2 meetings. The first half started with  the Argentinians sitting deep in defense allow the Germans to have more possession , but it was the Argentinians who looked more dangerous with Lavezzi and Messi creating spaces and running at the defense of Germany. Their efforts nearly paid of after Higuain got a chance to score after a terrible back pass but he fired wide. Higuain later scored after a sweet cross from Lavezzi but it was ruled offside , as the repay showed the lines man was right.
The first half ended goalless and so did the second half , which also produced chances for both sides but neither was able to take it.   The game went on to extra time , and the dead lock was finally broken in the second extra time  by Gotze in the 113th minute. Messi tried his best but it just wasn’t enough and the Germans have proved again that teamwork and cohesion wins games. Germany  now becomes the first European country to win a world cup on South American soil.
