"HDP"?! If the "H" stands for "Hijos", then I know what that means. No referee is going to give out too many cards to the host country. Ballack's dive in the penalty area in extra-time was the obvious one. But overall I thought the ref did a good job. Not too many complaints. Just wasn't Argentina's day. The best team in the tournament, imo. Fun to watch. Tevez looked really good out there. It's a shame "Pato" wasn't around for the penalties as he has a good history in spot kicks. A wasted sub whenever you have to change keepers. I didn't quite understand Pekerman's thinking bringing on Cruz for Crespo. It felt like he was closing up shop at 1-0. Messi would've given the Germans fits during the extra session. Really bummed. Going out on penalties is always tough to accept.
