* Horacio Elizondo will become the first Argentinian official to referee a FIFA World Cup Final and only the third South American to be given the honour. Elizondo emulates the Brazilians Arnaldo Coelho and Romualdo Arppi Filho, who took charge of the 1982 and 1986 Finals respectively. The 42-year-old is also the first to referee both the inaugural match and the Final and today's game is his fifth at the tournament. He also officiated in the Germany v Costa Rica, Czech Republic v Ghana, Switzerland v Korea Republic and England v Portugal fixtures.

I only observed the 2d 0.5 of France - Spain, that became likely the most interesting 0.5 i have considered. Germany - Argentina this morning became a good one, likely my determination for the most interesting one i have considered (thoroughly).
