So you didn't watch the 2006 world cup then? They were far better than Germany until Riquelme went off (Germany were heading straight out of the WC) and the match against Mexico was great to watch.
That's a myth, no matter how often it's repeated. Both teams neutralised each other in the midfield for most of the match, and Riquelme was taken off for a reason, to save energy and secure the lead, because it was a very exhausting match. It wouldn't have been so exhausting if Argentina actually were "far better".
However, Argentina last year were more of an unit than this years Argentina, like I said earlier.
