Yeah appreciate all that. But I think each side not wanting to give an inch tactically has removed any hope of seeing some fluid football. I don't think I've ever seen as many back passes as I have tonight.

Perhaps my original assessment was flippant and I know what you mean, its interesting from a tactical perspective for sure.

Agree that Argentina showed more intent in the first 80 minutes or so.

Try having £30 on 0-0, it gives you a whole new appreciation for tactical pragmatism.

Can we not just skip the next 13 minutes and go to penalties.

Hope Holland win. Germany vs Holland could be a cracking affair.

I want, or did want, Argentina to win because I'd like to see the best player of my generation, Messi, lift the wc. But Argentina have been so boring throughout the tournament I don't think they deserve to play in the final, let alone lift the trophy.

Twat, his stupid pony tail meant he couldn't do a proper header, defender probably trod on it.
