Official World Cup Thread

[Dutch_guy]

You were actually directly referring to the other three times that Germany won due to a goal in the last 5 minutes:

It seems you're right ! Which is strange since I wasn't meaning to reffer to those 3 times they scored in the last 5 minutes, really , I don't know why I wrote that. Sorry for that.

Oh and for the record, those 3 games did give the German team quite a reputation.

I have a bit the feeling that you still have the 1974 Worldcup finals in mind when you refer to the German team undeservedly "stealing a victory"

Well not really, in that game the Germans scored twice in the first half (or very early in the second, don't know for sure), meaning we still had more than enough time left to repair the damage. A shame we lost, the individual class of our players was better, but we lost - we should have made a goal, we didn't. As much as I would like to say you stole the win, you didn't. Though I do maintain we had the better player, but that doesn't automaticly win you the game as was the case in '74.

Long story... Petkovic called his son to WC then he sent him home as Serbian public became mad. Pure nepotism. He called Nenad Djordjevic to be right back and he put him into game. It was the first great game for Djordjevic. And of course Roben did what he wanted on Serbian right side in first half. Koroman did't played from start. Savo Milosevic played in attack beacause he need now only one game to rich his 100 game for national team. Not to mention coward tactics - so called "bunker"

.

I must say the Serbs did impress me, especially Koroman and Zigic, they were close an several occaisions.

We can beat Argentina with drastical change in tactics and some players must play from start like Zigic and Koroman.

What tactical changes would you say are needed to beat Argentina ?
