Damn.

Just....

Damn.
 
Hmm

Guess everyone who talked shit about the Holland - Argentina match will have their eyes opened tonight. If Holland would have won the PKs they would have had a chance against this Germany. It was just Brasil who should have never reached the semi's.

No, I'm pretty sure Germany is destroying Argentina and Argentina has no chance, I read it here.
 
No penalty. Good call. He wasn't going for higuain, he was going for the ball. As far as I know goalkeepers always have their knees up when going for a ball in the air.
For a reason. To beat the shit out of anyone that comes near them. It's still a foul.

It's like in hockey. It's not a high sticking penalty if you're taking a shot on goal. Intentionally following through into someone face is a-okay.
 
Keepers don't have some right to come in dangerously with their knee face high. It can be dangerous play and that's a foul. The question is was it realistically avoidable? I think it was.
 
Oh man some of you guys here, how is that a foul by Neuer? Clearly got the ball first then Higuain, therefore clean tackle. If the ref had to call foul on Higuain is debatable though.

You can't really compare matches with each other, but yeah we'd have a had a real good chance. If Robben can keep form, Euro 2016 might get interesting.
 
WTF is the Argentine back line doing? they great at defending but when they have the ball and moving forward they shaky, Germany needs to exploit that more..
