I think Argentina will beat Germany. They have displayed an amazing tactic level, I have to respect Pekerman even if he didn't call Capitano. This will be the hardest match for Argentina but if they win, they'll have 1/2 world cup ;)

only a few hours away, come on Argentina, please don't let us down again.

I get the feeling a World Cup 98 is gonna occur, 1-1 when one of our players (I get the feeling Saviola) goes nuts and headbuts a player (definetely Lehmann) and gets a red and then Germany wins the game.

come on Argentina, I'm praying Burdisso is fit because he is MASSIVE to us, never thought I'd say that but he is absolutely crucial, more crucial than Heinze. god, what I would do to have Zanetti in the squad.

I hope Riquelme doesn't have a bad game, because he is better than that and everyone will criticise him for the loss, no doubt about it. Same goes for Messi & Tevez, I hope they don't choke, because I know they're much better players than the usual big game choke artists of world futebol.

vamos Argentina, VAMOS!!

If Saviola can even reach Lehmann to headbutt him, then they should give Argentina a free ride to the final.

:dielaugh: Classic Helal!

I would like to see the Argies beat the Germans (i dont like either) just so our boys (especially Cruz and Cambiasso) will still have a shot of winning the WC. But I think the Germans might nick this one. There strikers are on fire, the middies are doing OK, Lehman will do a half decent job, but the defence has the potential for making a mistake or two.

Argentinas problem is that there squad is too good, and some players might getting angry if Perkerman does 'nt choose them for the line up.

The best game (on paper) of this World Cup, Germany went really strong and Argentina, well it's Argentina. Both teams are highly motivated and their thoughts are on the win, not penalties. Germany will surely have home advantage but will that matter against players that played Boca-River, Inter-Milan,...,?

I see Klinsmann having a hard day today, because I believe that Argentina didn't play that good against Mexico it was because La Volpe put his team to stop Argentina's attack, Mexico scored a goal and they could have gone through. I say this because Klinsmann can't play like this, the "home side" demands it, he will have to put his team on an attacking mood, what might make it difficult for them.

However, I can see the other side, Argentina plays slow at times, and they must pick up the pace, plus they will have big problems on the midfield as I believe that Germany has a better midfield (I'm probably getting killed for saying it). I think the smarter way to go for Argentina is Ball Possession, they have to play this one waiting on the error of Germany's defence the "weaker link" of the German team.

I just hope to see a great game and to the best team to win, and since I like Argentina better, so... go ARGENTINA.
