:13:06. > :13:12.It took as a week. But if Argentina win, it is worth
:13:13. > :13:17.it? Of course, we are going to win. Will Lionel Messi be the man? Yes,
:13:18. > :13:22.he is the best, the second Maradona. No pressure. A man many see as the
:13:23. > :13:26.greatest player of his generation have got Argentina this far but now
:13:27. > :13:35.comes the defining moment in his illustrious career.
:13:36. > :13:39.However, Germany's astonishing 7-1 thrashing of Brazil ensures they are
:13:40. > :13:42.favourites. After the win against Brazil,
:13:43. > :13:46.everybody thinks this will be easy-going but we have to win it.
:13:47. > :13:50.The circumstances are just for us because we know we are the better
:13:51. > :13:53.team and I think the guys know they are under pressure a little bit but

:13:59. > :14:04.security operation Rio has ever seen is under way with 26,000 personnel
:14:05. > :14:10.on duty. The hope is now events inside this iconic arena deliver a
:14:11. > :14:15.fitting finale to a memorable month. I have never experienced this level
:14:16. > :14:21.of excitement leading up to a match, we hope for a good one!
:14:22. > :14:27.If any final can live up to the billing, it is this. There is a
:14:28. > :14:30.sense this is the best player in the world against the best team and
:14:31. > :14:37.there is no doubt Germany will have the momentum. There is a sense this
:14:38. > :14:41.is their time, Argentina are heavily dependent on Lionel Messi. It is
:14:42. > :14:45.fascinating and that is why more than 1 billion people are expected
:14:46. > :14:48.to tune into this game on television. We have the grandest
:14:49. > :14:49.stages and now we just need a place to perform.
