    Khedira out in a warmup of a Finals World Cup game.

    Howedes hits the post on that wide open header.

    I think fate is on Argentina's side today.

    This is really anybody's game. Argentina looked better early, then Germany came on before the half. Really a toss up at this point.

    Argentina is basically playing defense and waiting for counters.

    Germany's rhythm got disrupted with Kramer's concussion but they came on.

    But Messi needs to get into this. Germany's D is extremely vulnerable so he needs to touch the ball more.

    While sacrificing offense. I think they could easily score on Germany if they're just not depending on counters (they could also give up goals).

    Germany's D is vulnerable right now.

    I don't have a good feeling about this one. The game is going exactly as Argentina needs it. And that yellow card for Basti could come back to
    bite us. We need a goal.

    Germany has had several good opportunities from the right. If Argentina keeps leaving that side open i think it will cost them.

    that's the thing. i think argentina is deathly afraid of those counter opportunities.

    if higuain wasn't such a bum they could be up by now.

    Wow Argentina has been really dangerous. They are playing better than in the semis.

    Sorry but I think Germany is going to lose this game with the way they are playing defense.

    They are playing with fire.

    Yeah, it seems like only a matter of time for Argentina right now. They're definitely pushing close to a goal.
