Argentina vs. Germany 4-0: Maradona’s team goes home

Argentina vs. Germany finished in a 4-0 that is an incredible display of power by Joachim Low’s boys.

Nobody, and certainly not Maradona, could have predicted what happened today.

Most people would have said that this is very balanced game, one not to bet on. Germany proved them wrong by completely trashing Argentina.

Maradona’s boys showed that they were just what the doctor ordered for the Germans: a team that tries to attack, but does it not as a team, but as individual players.

Things were, clearly, worsened by the fact that Argentina has conceded a goal in the 3rd minute (Muller the scorer).

After that, Argentina tried to make up the lost time, but couldn’t. Their shots all ended up in Neuer’s hands.

All hell broke loose for Argentina in the second half. As they tried to attack, Germany became more and more dangerous when counterattacking and scored again, in the 68th and 74th minute. Klose and Friedrich were the ones to penalize Argentina’s defensive innocence.

The third goal was actually Schweinsteiger’s, because he was the one to dribble past the whole Argentinean defense.

The fourth goal, again by Klose, only came as a confirmation that Germany is a force and Argentina is going one.

The Mannschaft goes on to meet the winner between Spain and Paraguay.
