The dream is over for Diego Maradona. Argentina were outcla sed and soundly beaten in Cape Town today, denying the Maradona-Me si fairytale the happy ending many had longed to see.The Germans gave another mastercla s in how to tear a team to shreds on the break. Miroslav Klose scored twice to take his career tally to 14 World Cup goals, Bobby Ryan Women Jersey one short of Ronaldos record. Arne Friedrich and Thomas Mller added the others to complete a beating that couldnt have been any more comprehensive.The Germans played as they did against England, taking an early lead through Mller. Man of the match Bastian Schweinsteiger curled a free kick in from the left hand touchline which Mller rose to head in Paul Carey Jersey from close range.Once they had taken the lead, Germany absorbed everything Argentina had to throw at them before launching incisive counter attacks of their own. As Argentina grew frustrated Lionel Me si dropped deeper and deeper seeking to influence the play, toiling without any tangible reward. As the Argentines grew weary the Germans appeared to find extra energy from within. First Podolski broke clear before cro sing for Klose to tap in from a few yards. It was the strikers 100th cap and 51st international goal and took him level with the great Gerd Mller in the all time finals scoring charts.Number three came after Schweinsteiger barged through the week Argentine defence, cro sing from the byline to set up another tap in, this Filip Chlapik Jersey time for Arne Friedrich. In the final minute Mezut zil cro sed for Klose to finish well, another poachers goal Der Bomber would have been proud of.Schweinsteiger dominated the midfield, something Argentina skipper Javier Mascherano was seemingly powerle s to prevent. Tevez and Higuain struggled to create any clear chances while the back four looked porous at best. Heinze, Burdi so, Demichelis and Otamendi looked ponderous and failed to cope with the pace and intensity of the Germans in much the same way John Terry and Matthew Upson had a week ago.As the second half progre sed Maradona cut a more desperate figure. He shouted and gesticulated but all in vein, his team were beaten by the better Filip Chlapik Kids Jersey side. Shortly after the third goal tears began to fall from eyes that had burned so brightly during those confident midweek pre s conferences.Me si will end this tournament without a goal to his name, a harsh fact that certainly fails to reflect the quality of his play. In the end, it wasnt meant to be for pupil or master and Argentina must travel home. Having been so close to failing to qualify they have exceeded expectations this summer but romantics around the globe will mourn the death of a bizarre yet captivating dream.We may never see Maradona participate in another World Cup but must at least console ourselves with the fact that Me si will certainly be back. Whats more, he will have a point to prove on Brazilian soil in 2014. For their part, Germany continue to improve and are beginning to resemble potential world champions. Magnus Paajarvi Women Jersey
