Germany Humiliates Argentina Out Of The World Cup

Posted by Efoghor Joseph Ezie on 10:33:00 PM

Pin It Now! The German Soccer Machine finally humiliated the Argentines out of the current world, ending their ambition of playing in the semi finals. This defeat also silenced their loquacious coach, Diego maradona and also put a halt to Gonzalo Higuain’s dream of winning the Adidas Golden Boot after scoring 4 goals in 5 matches.

Thomas Mueller opened scoring in the 3rd minute through a header. His goal put the Argentines under tension as their Coach Diego Maradona could not settle down in one place anymore.

Otamendi got the first yellow card of the match in the 11th minute. In the 13th minute, Podolski missed an opportunity to increase the goal tally for Germany. In the 22nd minute, Carlos Tevez failed to score from the cross provided him by Lionel Messi; the ball was intercepted by the goal keeper.

In the 24th minute, Miroslav Klose ballooned Mueller’s cross over the bar. In the 31st minute, Lionel Messi’s free kick went over the bar for a goal kick. The Argentines kept pressing forward and occasionally applying their provocative tactics; but all these were frustrated by the Germans who kept their cool and remained focused.

In the 35th minute, Gonzalo Higuain’s attempt to equalize was frustrated by the keeper. In the 36th minute, Thomas Mueller got a yellow card, which automatically means he’s going to miss their next match, having gotten a yellow in their previous match. In the 37th minute, Higuain’s goal was ruled off-side by the centre referee. Podolski also lost the chance to increase the tally for his side in the 39th minute, as his shot went across the goal line for a goal kick. Messi once again shot over the bar in the 45th minute as he tried by all means to equalize before the half time.

The second half saw the European team scoring three more goals against their South American opponents to completely send them out of the tournament. In the 54th minute, Carlos Tevez’s shot hit a German defender in the face right in the 18 yard box but went across the line for a corner kick. In the 57th minute, Jerome Boateng’s goal-bound shot was parried by the goal keeper.

Messi’s ball beat the keeper in the 64th minute, but it was cleared out of touch by Lahm for a corner kick. And in the 68th minute, Miroslav Klose increased the goal tally for Germany by neatly tucking in Podolski’s cross. 72nd minute saw Marcell Jarsen replacing Jerome Boateng, and in the 74th minute, Freidrich made it three for Germany after connecting a pass from Bastian Schweinsteiger . Klose completed it 4 in the 89th minute to make sure the Argentine were sent packing.
