Imho (not a huge football expert, nor enthousiast), it was quite competitive. Both teams were so active to give neither one the chance to score until in the last minutes they put all of their energy into it to surprise the other one. I know, that it can be seen as boring (I also kinda thought the same most of the time), but damn… the response to the opportunities where quite fast and saved most of the goals. But imo Spain had much better gameplay and opportunities. Shame of those offsides
I can tell you are not a football enthusiast, that game was ass. Spain should’ve won by 3 to 0, there were two goals annulled by skin of the teeth technicalities. Argentina did nothing the whole game, except try to injure Spanish players in the hopes of a penalty result. Everyone knew this was going to be the case, but the magnitude was off the charts. Argentina was humiliated from a pure sport technical ability alone. Spain dominated the way I would expect a premiere league team to dominate a group of disorganized amateurs. It was honestly a bit painful to watch. Argentina was not competitive in the slightest, that was not how a game between two equally skilled teams typically goes. Watch England vs. France semi-finals for a better example of what high level play between matched teams actually looks like.
