No Idea why he deserves that award, other than name recognition.


Whilst Messi didn't really do enough, a player with the dirty nature of Robben to win would have been terrible.

I personally thought Muller, Kroos, Hummels or Neuer deserved it, even if Neuer should have received a straight red in the final.

Jesus christ. At the start of the game I jokingly said to my friend: "only way this game could upset me is if Goetze scores the winning goal in extra time".

:o

So lame.

Congrats to Germany though! Very much deserved, it's about time! Low making everyone eat that crow haha

tough for Messi but he gave it his all, gotta get ready for 2018. Argentina had their chances but failed to captialize

Feels awesome ! Long time Germany fan. Stupid consolation prize for Messi. He was the last person to deserve it out of those players who were nominated and participated in the finals. Robben, Lahm, Neuer, Kroos, Müller, James all deserved it more.

Jordan never fully understood basketball. He had the lowest basketball IQ of any NBA "superstar" in history.

The best team won, but quality showing from both sides. Despite the single goal it was an entertaining game with real chances for both sides.

Not sure about Messi winning MVP, but then again it isn't clear who should win if it isn't him.

“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."

I guess its time to delete the CBC world cup app. Too bad they can't carry EPL games for next season. :(

You guys should be more upset about Lewi leaving. Gotze is from Bavaria, plus he wouldn't have had this moment if it wasn't for him being on Bayern playing with a lot of these guys.

MASSIMO WE COMIN 4 U

Congrats to the German fans here. I knew when we took that 4-0 thrashing from you guys that you'd end up being the real contenders. Close match, but the better team won.

Lol. Of course I'm mad at Rob too, but he didn't score the winning goal in a wc final did he?

Screw Goetze. I'll hate him all I want to, its my choice. Not sure what your comment about Bayern has to do with anything I said.

Hope MU improves next year, haha.
