John, Lots of British people still slag off the Germans and the last war ended 77 years ago. The Argentinians were defeated by the British 40 years ago in their own backyard. The Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) are incredibly close to the Argentine mainland so you understand why they are still upset. I used to work down there and they are very nice people. It was all about oil exploration, therefore money.
A bitter cheating nation should win nafff all! France to win big style hopefully. Let Messi and co squirm.

Argentina are World Champions after winning a sensational World Cup final. "bien hecho y totalmente merecido" "well done and fully deserved"
Great and entertaining game, I reckon the French should have had a few more yellow cards, but the Referee had it all in hand. Not to Collina standard but close. Argentina fully deserved the win. At the end, they were the better side Messi was Messi and did not disappoint. And I am pleased he left International football with a fully earned golden send off. I suppose, now, CR7 will be seething with jealousy and envy, but such is life.

As Gump would say”stupid is as stupid does” The sad thing is this action is pasted all over the media, no one is talking about his last gasp save in the dying seconds!
Lots of articles in the news have highlighted his save and also his gamesmanship in the penalty shoot-out. This world cup winner will not be bothered about anything else.
