And if we're just going to say what happened at the end, Spain was the better team by a ways.
Yeah.
It's tough to like, think about argentina as being one of the best teams in this competition now but uh i think in the competition you see yeah some of their games came down to the the last couple minutes or whatever but the way they either forced teams back or like got these teams just in their trance and like had them just kind of sit back and let argentina have the ball was impressive and you know of course messy was doing messy things so uh They certainly were one of the better teams.
Yeah, it was interesting that, you know, I think every game up until this one, the opposition was letting Argentina control some part of the game.
And it just never happened here.
Spain just wanted to control it and not be really that aggressive, you know, at times.
I mean, Emi still made 11 saves, so they were putting the ball in net, but there was never like...
But even then, I feel like a lot of those 11 saves, those shots were kind of straight at him, more or less.
Exactly.
And there was never moments of an 8-10 minute period of just pure attacking, like, we're going to find a goal here.
It really didn't happen until, I think we could argue, the 90th minute when the...
the foul that came in with the goal being scored.
And however we want to describe that, that was like the moment of like, Oh, there they go.
There's the gas right at the end of the game.
Um, you know, honestly could have been their game plan going in.
Let's control this whole game and never really risk it until the very end when we have an opportunity.
And, uh, They just about had it.
What do you think of that call? Are we going to talk
about that call? I think we have to.
It'll get forgotten about now because it doesn't matter at this point, but I mean, we were there.
We were watching it together.
I think that whole room had basically the same reaction.
It was like, one, what was the call initially? And then two, the replay comes out.
