The German commentator is talking nothing but bullshit.

 

[cilonen]

I actually think Robben deserved it.

He deserved the golden scuba tank.

 

[Dawg]

They tweet a whole bunch of bullshit and then deletes whatever that didn't come true. It's not funny, it's stupid.

That's kinda the reason I think it's funny.

Already a dozen of retweets on my timeline. There's people who legitimately believe this.

 

[LiK]

.

Gaddamn

 

[Insane Metal]

What a difference. How humble the German team is. They deserve this world cup for that alone.

 

[SgtCobra]

Offside if late.

This is too good and I don't know why.

 

[friskykillface]

poor sportsmanship i know but i would have just left the building if i lost the world cup

fuck that, bye B^)

 

[vilmer_]

Just won the World Cup, let's make them walk up a huge flight of stairs.

 

[whoszed]

God damn Messi is a f****** a** h***, holy shit.

The hell did he do? I mean, it looked like he didn't even want to be there? He still put up a straight face

I don't like Neuer but I recognise that he played brilliantly

 

[dakun]

Sore loser and did not deserve the golden ball.

At least try to smile for the people applauding you.

He would be trashed even more if he smiled because he'd look like he didn't give a fuck about the WC

 

[Amentallica]

I have to say, thank you Argentina for making this one of the most thrilling and best WC finals ever. Best game of them in the WC by far and it made the final game exciting to watch until the very last minute. Even if i now have a lot more gray hairs.

Stop drinking the Argentina juice. They did not bring excitement to the table.

 

[MrPing1000]

lol at messi getting the golden ball. Not even in the top 5. Should have been James or Muller or Lahm or mascherano or even Robben.

 

[Konosuke]

Merkel looks so motherly, I'm swooned.

 

[Mohonky]

He deserved the golden scuba tank.

Basically.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

He deserved the golden scuba tank.

His dives win games.

 

[Toxi]

JÀAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Congrats. Seems like the game wasn't as boring as I expected.

 

[The Auxiliary]

I can't believe no one's gifed that male Argentina fan with the running facepaint wiping his tears with the flag yet.

 

[Oersted]

That female background decoration

 

[RandyBobandy]

Muller got 5 goals and 3 assists and won the world cup. How does he not ge golden ball?

 

[speculawyer]

He deserved the golden scuba tank.

Pure win.

 

[Krixeus]

Five players who had more impressive World Cups than Messi:

Neuer
Muller
Robben
James
David Luiz

Rubbish decision from FIFA going for the cop out option.

Please tell me you're joking. Funny if you were, but if you aren't...

 

[PhantomZone]

Congratulations and a huge well done to Germany.

 

[Wind's Howling]

Well GAF. If Messi was the greatest of all time he should have showed it there and then. He was nowhere to be seen after the '60 min mark.

 

[Maintenance]

Messi with the golden ball, lol. Should've been either Robben or James, iMHO. But eh, we won and that's what matters right now.

 

[Amandeep]

Truly was a great end, had my heart in my mouth with that Messi free kick... You deserved it Germany, now lift that world cup.

wait waaatt???

 

[Grover Cleveland]

There is a bit of redemption for Schweini. I remember him crying walking up into the stands of the Allianz after his missed penalty helped Bayern lose to Chelsea in the 2012 CL final.

Much different visage for him tonight at the Maracana.

 

[Xando]

merkel is loving it

 

[NYCmetsfan]

Congrats German GAF, you guys were the best team. Wanted Argentina but you guys won and played better

 

[SkylineRKR]

Sore loser and did not deserve the golden ball.

At least try to smile for the people applauding you.

I think he knows he doesn't deserve it.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Messi's like "I don't need another one of these when I got..."

Considering he just lost the final I think it's kind of common sense to see how he would feel no?

 

[Thorakai]

those girls just staring in the background are freaking me out

 

[klausbert]

What's up with the Emirates stewardesses?

 

[jorma]

I think FootyGAF and even the biggest Real Madrid fans will tell you this: Messi is as good as it gets, even if he's not in form as today. I respect your opinion, though I disagree.
Let's not argue now though, maybe another time.

Shrug. I don't know anyone who has seen them both play that will go with Messi over Maradona. But your opinion is noted and respected, even if it's wrong.
I would put Messi over Ronaldo though, if it helps?

Neuer got the glove....

 

[Juz]

Finally Klose wins the WC.

So happy for him!

 

[Mt Heart Attack]

Why is Merkel part of the awarding committee anyway?

 

[Unknown Soldier]

I'm thinking of the Simpsons episode where Homer wins a Grammy and drops it off the balcony of his hotel window and someone below throws it back at him. Messi is Homer right now, he wants that Golden Ball trophy like he wants holes in his head.

 

[meanspartan]

Stop shitting on Messi. He clearly didnt want that award more than any of you didnt want him to get it. Looked humiliated.

 

[ekim]

What's up with the Emirates stewardesses?

Big sponsor of the WC

 

[QuicheFontaine]

FOR WHAT??

Sorry guys, just catching up here.

 

[GaussTek]

So, you don't want it? Give it to James!

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Fantastic game. Argentina really had their chances, and those missed chances simply came back to haunt them. It shouldn't have even ended up in extra time really. Congratulations to Germany on a fantastic game and a fantastic tournament. Their win is very well deserved.

Messi is still one of the greatest to ever play the game. He really does deserve a world cup championship before all is said and done, and I really thought this could be his time, but it just wasn't meant to be. Damn shame he didn't have Di Maria in there to help him. I think it would have made the difference.

 

[Acorn]

Will Suarez win the Golden Bite?

He retains the platinum cunt award for a record 4th year running

 

[Envelope]

He deserved the golden scuba tank.

 

[Verano]

DAT MEXICAN FLAG!!!!

 

[Masquerader]

Well GAF. If Messi was the greatest of all time he should have showed it there and then. He was nowhere to be seen after the '60 min mark.

Common sense at long last. Good or not, Messi made a mistake at the very last hurdle.

 

[D4Danger]

Well GAF. If Messi was the greatest of all time he should have showed it there and then. He was nowhere to be seen after the '60 min mark.

I love how everyone seems to have decided that Messi is shit until he wins a world cup.

 

[Sadist]

Robben, Muller or James should have gotten that prize.

They were all much, much better than Messi.

 

[969]

Messi best player?

Not a chance in hell. If anyone deserved it was either James Rodriquez or Arjen Robben.
