Now that the match has reached its end, it is seriously a tough part to declare any one of them to have played really well in the Finale. While Argentina had Messi, Germany had a completely well-planned team consisting of all the players who attracted the followers largely after defeating Brazil in the Semi Final.
Throughout the match, T.Kroos and Ozil kept the audience engaged by gaining most of the attention. Argentina, on the other hand, maintained the decorum of stadium. Looking all relaxed and much relied on Messi!
Giving each other a really hard time, both of teams managed not to allow a single score till the half time.
The game turned really intense when it 57 minutes were passed and yet both of them earned no victory with scoreboard still on 0-0. It was at this point of time when Argentina’s G.Higuaín got injured but was back with his sportsman spirit.
