End of the dream for Sergio...

After a tight game in which they dominated possession, Germany eventually overcame Argentina to be crowned World Champions with a superb goal from Mario Götze!
Following his heroics in the semi-final penalty shoot-out against the Netherlands, Sergio Romero was this time powerless to prevent Germany from claiming their fourth World title in extra-time. Despite dominating possession for long periods, the Germans struggled to find a way through the disciplined Argentine defence, but were finally rewarded for their efforts. In the 113th minute, Götze pulled away from Demichelis and showed beautiful control to take a Schürrle cross from the left on his chest, before sweeping the ball past Romero into the far corner .
Having featured regularly in the last four of the tournament since 2002, Germany are finally World Champions once again for the fourth time, after a 24 year wait!
