Diego Armando Maradona is the best player to ever step foot on a
soccer field. Whatever others may say, there was not one individual who did what he did both on Argentina's national team, and on the teams he played for.
Dunga, on the other hand, was a bland player, a negative player, who, some say was the teacher's (or in this case, the coach's) pet, and for this he got to be apart of Brazil's national team, and even became the captain.
But while with Dunga as a coach, you can see the thought process behind the line-up, behind the dynamics of the game, Maradona is like a little kid, who only wants all of his favorite players to play together, no matter what, even if it means there is no defense and the offense is as disorganized as a game in the barrio.
Diego should go home, and let others do the job. He was a great player, but among the things that he is not, is a coach.
What about Bianchi (He looks like Larry David's long lost twin brother...?)

I have to
admit (with a lot of pain,) the better team won the match. Argentina played great soccer throughout the entire tournament, but when Brazil who showed us sad soccer all along the Copa, see an
Argentinian shirt, everything changes and they actually decide to show up to the game. So congratulations Brazil, you won again, we'll try again soon. More sports and pop culture posts at Amaldo's blog

The first half went as planed, actually the best Argentinian half of the Copa. And the cherry was the amazing goal. Mexico is probably the strongest team of the tournament other then
Argentina, concentrated mainly on committing annoying fouls and going for dangerous counter attacks here and there.

Yes, Brazil got
to the finales, but in the Dunga way, the ugly way. Argentina has a good chance tomorrow, Vs. Mexico. The three J's: Juan Riquelme, Javier Zanetti, and Juan Veron are the skelaton and Messi, Tevez,
and the rest provide the fine tuning to this surprising team. There is a different spirit then the one of the last Mundial, lets hope Argentina can bring glory days back. Vamos Argentina, Vamos a
ganar!!!
