First half saw a Paraguay defensive masterclass, EXACTLY what i was hyping them up for in the lead up to the World Cup. Proper shithousery too. Goal that came out of nowhere too, a perfect situation for Paraguay. Second half Paraguay REALLY sat back, but unfortunately for them also conceded there. There really isnt too much you can say about it, Paraguay defend extensively and Germany wasn’t able to create enough. Precisely how Paraguay likes it. So im not surprised it went to extra time. Paraguay have the lowest average of goals out of all countries for a reason, they can defend well even against Germany. Yes they conceded 4 against USA but i think its a mental thing for Paraguay where after they concede they make more mistakes before being able to pick it up again. USA hit them many times in a short window, Germany had more dangerous chances right after scoring too. And also, Paraguay just plays better against stronger opponents, thats just a actual fact lmao. First time extra time in a round of 32, and first time this World Cup, and what a incredible bit of drama from Tah scoring a header but after all the celebrations VAR ruling the goal out for a foul on the goalie. BBC commentators said it was ‘soft’, i think theyre stupid. You cant just push a goalie to the ground. These fouls weren’t called in the Premier League, but were everywhere else for a good reason. Good call from VAR imo who have stayed in the background quite a lot this tournament. Germany really lost their heads from it all, so incredibly mad at everything while theyre the only ones to blame on why they weren’t winning. Absolutely loved the shithousing, shameless flop in the 113th minute and it was hilarious. Also a crazy sliding from Musiala, actual leg breaker if it connects, should get a red for that ridiculous to get in like that, insane headloss. Penalties is EXACTLY what Paraguay play for and just like that Germany are OUT!!!!! Fucking scenes man. I love this sport so fucking much. (2000)
