The FIFA World Cup 2014 ended with Germany beating Argentina in the final at Rio de Janeiro. Germany overcame the Lionel Messi-led Argentina to pull off their first World Cup victory in over two decades. Their last victory was, by coincidence, against the same opposition, led by the similarly — if not more — iconic Diego Maradonna. The 1-0 scoreline was the same as well.
Football is a sport that is keenly followed even by a number of cricketers, and as the German juggernaut beat their Argentine opponents, Twitter was abuzz with reactions from cricketers.
India’s 2011 ICC World Cup hero Yuvraj Singh tweeted,
Sorry to Argentina fans! Unlucky too miss 2 goals congratulations to Germany on their 4th wcup win! Emotions brings back 2011 w cup memories
