Below is an archive of the game as it happend :
48' : So Close Messi !
Beglia puts Messi through perfectly. He has the goal at his mercy but sends it wide right. That was nearly 1 - 0 !
89' : Farewall, Miroslav Klose
Klose, the top goal scorer in World Cup history, goes off to the roars of the German fans. Mario Gotze, more of a midfielder, will replace him.
99' : Another Miss !
Palacio should have scored for Argentina ! Hummels unwisely tries to clear a great rojo long ball instead of staying with his man. When he misses it, Palacio is in alone on goal. It's a straight-forward chip. He manages to clear Neurer, but it goes haplesly wide. Hummels is the happiest man in the arena.
113' : Goal, Germany !
Schurrle, on the wing, whips a cross and finds Gotza between two defenders in the box. Gotze chests it down and volleys it in. A classic goal and one that will be long remembered. Barring a late surorise here. Gotze has surely won the World Cup for Germany !!
