Its plain to see as a team, England weren't good enough. However, I am concerned about hearing for the last 24 hours "Germany were the better team" and "Argentina were the better team" so the officiating didn't matter. What next? A row full of international judges deciding each game by giving marks out of 10 for like they do in Gymnastics and Ice skating?

Football is about scoring more goals in a game. if not then be done with WC qualifying and just let FIFA invite the top 32 ranked teams to Brazil in 2014. Then each time they are ready to take to the pitch FIFA can say "well, team A is ranked higher than team B so team A wins".

One quote from many years ago (source unknown) said "FIFA is just there to make the ball square and the goals round". They are taking a wonderful competition and making it look like a joke.
