They already closed the "Fanmeile" (fanmile) in Berlin. There is place for 200.000 people and it's full.

The thirst is real

Facts nonetheless.

OK.

The sky is blue.

Now what do we do? You're posting meaningless facts as if they have any bearing in the outcome of the match.
Here's actually meaningful facts:

6 players in the German squad are Bayern players. They have been playing with each other under Guardiola.

We will see come the final whistle. Your facts on the other hand have no bearing to me. They all tasted defeat in the CL to RM!
 
Im not rooting for any team in particular today. I just wanna watch an epic match. Only thing that I ask is to let James take the top scorer award.

So Mueller, even if you're a clear chance of scoring, don't do it. Pass it to Klose or Kroos or somebody else. Heck, pass it to Khedira for all I care.

pls understand.

And previously Bayern played under LVG, LVG lost to Argentina, so Germany will lose as well.
BOOM
 
Facts nonetheless.

Last time I will bother...

Neither Argentina nor Germany ever won the Worldcup in Brazil.

Brazil never lost 7:1 in a final on hometurf.

The titlechampion never started with a 5:1 loss.


I bet one of these facts will end this WC.

What does that even mean :lol? Why would that matter for the World Cup? What matters is that they have been playing with each other, they have been exceptionally well coached.

I ain't going to continue this discussion. As I said previously, it is a record YET to be broken!

Exactly as much as your point.

Jupp Heynckes did a better job with then IMO.
 
I made a friendly wager of 3-1 with Argentina being the victor. Seems crazy at the time but as we've seen previous games don't always give a good indicator of the outcome [See Broncos and Brazil]. It's always good to be cautiously optimistic unless you like the taste of crow.
 
So excited for the game, can't concentrate on anything else right now, although I should probably learn for the exam I am writing tomorrow.
 
I'm at work right now and won't be able to watch the cup. :( I'm recording it but it's going to be a mission to avoid social media, gaf and my friends.

I'm scared gaf help me and give me tips

Has Germany ever won when the sky was blue? We have to find out.

No, not really. My point is that National teams that have a few players playing for the same team and are properly coached have much better chances at doing well at an International level.
Your point is that a European team has never won a World Cup in South America. Which means nothing.

Do you think Spain's dominance of competitions at a national team level from 2008 to 2012 is a mere coincidence and had little to do with starting a bunch of Barca players who were dominating Europe?

Your facts are interesting trivia, that's all.

The reason Spain did well is because, they play the same style as Barca. Germany and Bayern don't play the same way!
