Germany Wins World Cup 2014

And so Germany wins the World Cup! After a thrilling 0-0 stalemate, Mario Goetze settles the tie in the 23rd minute of extra time with a sweet chest-and-volley.

Very well deserved win by Germany Ben though I placed all my money on Argentina (bets were placed before the World Cup began). Simple teamwork and no superstar egos (Kroos, Ozil, Mueller, Khedira, Schwinsteigger) makes this win so well deserved. 

It seems that 2014 is the year of teamwork.

In similar fashion, the San Antonio Spurs won the NBA Finals with sheer teamwork and zero egos, even though they didn't have any superstars (Tim Duncan, Tony Parker).

Don't you just love rooting for exemplary teamwork over individual talent?
