While some Latinos would like Germany to win for reasons such as they simply “don’t like Argentina.” Others are just passionate and devoted to the German national team.
As we prepare for the anticipated moment in soccer, we let you in on seven reasons why Germany is scary good in the World Cup.
7 Reasons to fear Germany at finals
1) Germany’s offense is amazing. Seriously, like… really good.

2) They have forward Thomas Mueller, who with five goals has the second most in this year’s World Cup, trailing Colombia’s James Rodriguez with six.
3) And they have Miroslav Klose, who is the all-time leading goal scorer in World Cup history. He has 16 goals, yikes!
4) At semi-finals they humiliated Brazil –the hosting nation– with a 7 – 1 win.

5) This won’t be the first time Germany and Argentina battle for the title at a World Cup finals, in 1990 they defeated Argentina 1-0.
Also noting, they went head-to-head at the finals in 1986 and Argentina won. Consider this the tie breaker.

6) If they win –which we don’t doubt– the Germans take home their fourth World Cup title.
