Germany draws with Argentina 2-2 in a group stage match

1966, England was the host country:

1974, Germany was the host country:

1986, Mexico was the host country:
Argentina beats Germany 3-2 in a very exciting final to lift the cup in front of 49,552 person

1990, Italy was the host country:
Germany beats Argentina 1-0 in a very dramatic final to lift the cup in front of 35,983 person

2006, Germany was the host country,
Germany beats Argentina in penalty shoot-outs, the game was a little bit weird with Argentina team coach making unusual substitutions that cost him the quarter final game.

Total score of confrontations:
2-1 for Germany but it is very important to point that out of 6 games between both teams, there was 3 draws.

Will penalty shoot-outs be the only way to separate these two ambitious teams on Saturday 2 July 2010?
