Not a shock result at all. Much like Brazil, this was the first hard team Argentina faced and they got shown up!! Maradona is a git and should stick to cheerleading rather than coaching.

Totaly agree. Argentina only JUST scraped into these finals. Maradona was a great player but his selection of dodgy backs and a piss-weak keeper show him for what he is - a tactically naive tosspot.

What a team! Great game... They're amazing to watch. Really hoping for a Dutch/German final.

Very, very happy I put money on the Germans ($12) and Ozil ($67) for the Golden Ball after the Australian game!

Maradonna was a great player but sticking a coke straw up his nose screwed his brains. Which is a shame because he could have been a fantastic coach.

Yep agree Germany V Holland Final.

Mate, he was fu*king loopy before his coke days...

Why could he have been a fantastic coach? Because he was a fantastic player?

Pretty spot on highlighted and how many players did he try out ? talk about not being sure or maybe he knew his probs were backs and decent midfileders ?

Nonetheless his substitutions were questionable and I hate to admit the germans were HOT to watch but just like our game they were allowed to walk through the guts and with their talent it looks that much better !
Bring on your ACE game Spain you are going to need it !

t. We're a top 25 ranked team in the world and have been for a long time now. It's not just a blip, it's a fact. We shouldn't be scared of playing anyone. Not just because we're Australian, but because we've earned that right with a series of excellent results against excellent opposition.


who was coaching when we got those "excellent results" that go us the top 25 ranking? Was it the same bloke who got canned for playing a 4231 in qualifying that got those results, and then got canned for NOT playing a 4231?

Hank, A player doesn't become a fantastic player without excellent coaching. All the years of him being coached by top coaches would have given him the skills to pass onto other players. That was my point. But he screwed up all the past knowledge by sticking coke straws up his nose. Who knows just how long he has been doing it. But one thing is for sure his brains have been fried and Argentina have paid the penalty for putting him on a pedestal instead of punting him as the disgrace he has become.

Redbaron, I think Germany makes top teams look bad. England, Australia, Argentina. They cant be all bad coaches.
