^ He went for the ball. No chance.

Yeah, there was nothing wrong with it, he was entitled to go for that ball and it was his momentum as much as anything that caused the collision.

A lot of today's players need to man up.

It's supposed to be a sport where a level of physical contact is allowed although the likes of Higuain would probably sooner there wasn't.

If he thinks one collision with a goalie is bad then he'd better not try his luck with Aussie Rules as that's basically a fistfight on a cricket pitch with goalposts :lol
 
Still celebrating Germany's win. What an amazing tournament for them. And to think Jurgen Klinsmann laid the foundation for this new German team in WC 2006. Maybe he can do the same for US.:rock
 
It was a torture to watch this game!

I´m so happy and proud it ended well for us!

The Italien reveree was a big letdown and argentinia didn´t deserve to end with 11 men... Schweinsteiger was badass, knockdown after knockdown and he still stood up! Incredible!!!

I´m drunk and still happy! :yess:

Just read some statistics about Messi winning the golden ball.

He created the most chances: 23
Completed the most dribbles: 46
Got most "Man of the match" awards.
Single handedly led his team to semis.
 
Re: Crow's post - Would console.^

Anyway, glad Germany won.

Kind of a bittersweet day for the Irish coverage of soccer as our treasured anchor Bill O' Herlihy retired with this World Cup. Really gonna miss him, thanks for the memories Bill, we'll leave it there so.

 
Then did nothing else. :lol

Yeah, that's what makes his last 2 performances disappointing.

This was a World Cup with great team play on behalf of most countries, where individual skills didn't shine much, that's why I think Messi's award is being too questioned, but after a bit of reading, I don't think anybody actually did more than Messi, individually speaking.
 
Twas a genuine impact for sure, which would have hurt like a m************r, but wasn't a foul was it. Just something that happens.
 
Nah, no foul, that's a text book goalie ball rejection, they always jump with a knee up to protect themselves, Higuaín should have known.

Just like the one that KOd the German dude wasn't a foul, just comes with the job :lol
