They’re both old enemies of ours. Not just in football but in far more serious conflicts. So which flag will you be waving? Mine will be red, yellow and black because when Germany have beaten us in major tournaments, it’s generally been fairly and squarely. Not the case with Argentina. In the 1998 World Cup, Diego Simeone feigned injury to get David Beckham sent off. And of course, in the 1986 quarter-final, Maradona punched the ball into the net and committed the most blatant and significant act of cheating ever seen on a football field. But it really comes down to pop music. Argentina’s contribution is largely confined to songs from Evita. Whereas this Studio 54 disco classic has its roots firmly in Deutschland.
Tonight will you be supporting Germany or Argentina?
