Btw, how is it fair to have an Argentine officiating this match?

Well, considering Croatia had a part in Argentina's elimination, the referee might indeed want to give Croatia some advantages as 'thank you' (since of course a referee from country A wants the team from country A to be out as fast as possible).

Right, so that means a Brazilian judge would have given an advantage to Germans in the 2014 finals...

If I'm not mistaken, you're already out for the final if your country reaches the semi or even quarter finals (no matter the result in that match) so that would have been impossible

Apparently 4th minute is the earliest point in WC history with both teams scoring.

Who predicted the tie ? Tunisians again

we will avoid 2 hours of drowsiness

It happened once 4 years ago in ARG-NGR game. Messi opened the score in 3rd min and Ahmed Musa equalized at 4th

There should be a "skills challenge" or penalty WC so the best individual players can become world champion too.

looks we are going for the first ever extra time for both teams at WC
