Brazil '14: Super Mario!

Day -22 WorldCup2018

The biggest story of the Brazil '14 final was a personal one, of the unique way I enjoyed it with my family. I've told the story before and it isn't needed again. It was a beautiful Maltese night and we watched it outside with fireworks in the background. Memorable, forever.

As for the final itself there wasn't much to remember. Lionel Messi had a chance to finally win a match for Argentina as Maradona did, but didn't. Germany won in extra time through a Mario Gotze goal. The hero 4 years ago, one of Germany's young stars for the future, he has had a dramatic downturn in fortunes and form and won't even be going to Russia this year.

Not bad, though, to be always known as a player who scored a World Cup final winner.
