Yeah what a beast game he had wtf...

Unfortunately the rest was tired... we played way too slow, nervous and afraid to lose. Didn't create a lot of chances. Not that Argentina was any better, but I guess in a way we deserved to lose... This was the max we could get.

Hope this fresh generation keeps growing and people like Depay, Wijnaldum and Clasie will grow to be the next Van Persie, Robben or Sneijder, while Vlaar and De Vrij turn out to be awesome defenders.

Van Persie has looked tired and shit the past games btw.

Mascherano is just as important as Khedira was for Germany. Both had MOTM performances in the semifinal

also, I fucked up on the previous page, Messi created the most chances, not had the most chances created (just a mini fix)

So glad that arrogant cunt van gaal and his team that relies on robben dives are out. Glad Messi gets his shot at glory too .

For a moment I thought you were talking about the Netherlands... which would have been very accurate.

Argentina players were pathetic now and then, accidentally touching them with a finger resulted in them having to be carried away per brancard. All to waste time to get to pens obviously but jesus, so ugly.

When you have the worst during this ENTIRE WC (robben), you should just not say anything re: diving/simulation

What, Robben diving? That's impossible, never happened.

And yeah, the motm has to be Mascherano, he's was amazing.

I honestly think that was one of the most dominant DM performances I've seen since Makalele days. Clearl MoM but I'm sure they'll say Messi or the gk because of those pk saves.

Vlaar was just brilliant.

Can a goalkeeper considered a 'diver'?

Vlaar was just brilliant.

Yeah. He was dominant, made Messi look like an average player, shame about the penalty miss. My vote for MOTM still goes to Mascherano for that tackle and the fact he was knocked out and still managed to recover to boss the midfield.

On an unrelated note, has Messi lost a step? I feel he doesn't have that explosion and ability to separate himself from a defender he once did.

Palacio; Samuel
Mascherano clearly the Man of the Match, anyone who watched the match would agree. Also great match of Enzo Perez, surprised me. Funny thing is that the best of the team was the goalkeeper and the defense, unlike the forwards who couldn't break Netherlands' defense. Romero shut up many of us who didn't trust him.
Can't fucking believe we are at the finals, VAMOS ARGENTINA CARAJO!!

I agree. We should have bought him when we had the chance a few years ago.

Not sure if this was posted but Vlaar penalty crossed the line. Just like we saw many gifs in funny pics thread.
