The Argentinian fans are a great spectacle to watch.
I was in Buenos Aires for the 2014 World Cup final, watched in the city centre on a big screen. As soon as that late German goal went in, it got very tense! A few Argentinan eyes locked onto me and instantly got accused of being a German and was chased into a hotel! Luckily they let me chill in a room until I could make my escape back to my hostel! They went mental, shop windows smashed all over the city, and cars turned over! I suppose you get idiot fans everywhere, but they are a very passionate and angry bunch when they are on the booze!

These sorts of stories make me laugh because the constant narrative is the big bad English and football hooliganism being The English disease. Even seen a Welsh guy complaining about The English the other day utterly convinced that Welsh hooliganism doesn't exist. England fans can be cunts but the hate boner for them by the media and other teams fans is completely disproportionate to reality when you look at other nations.

The Germans are going to Germany their way into the next round If by ‘Germany their way’ you mean ‘win games of football’ then yeah probably. Historically they’ve been quite good at that in fairness.
