I was pulling for Germany and was also frankly a little tired of all the Messi hype. I thought Germany deserved the win. I would have liked to see Messi be a little more gracious in the acceptance of the award, I realize he was disappointed about the out come of the game which is totally understandable but the way he took the award seemed very anticlimactic of such a coveted trophy. I don’t know what I was expecting but some appreciative emotion might have been appropriate. He took it like thanks for nothing.
