News Americas, BRASILIA, Brazil, Mon.

Before the match the singer had tweeted out a photograph of her clad in a red, yellow and black swim suit with a soccer ball and tagged it: โ€œfor my German boys.โ€

Showing she knows her soccer, RiRi then proceeded to give fans an almost ball by ball commentary of the match on her Twitter feed including the lone goal scored by Germanyโ€™s 22-year-old attacking midfielder Mario Goetze in the 113th minute.

โ€œGoooooooaaaaallllllll,โ€ tweeted Rihanna. โ€œSuper fโ€ฆng Mario!!!!!โ€

Goetzeโ€™s goal gave his country its fourth title, but only itโ€™s first as Germany much to the glee of German fans and its Chancellor Angela Merkel. It won three times as West Germany.

Gotze said he felt “unbelievable” after scoring the extra-time goal that gave Germany a 1-0 win over Argentina.

“It’s an unbelievable feeling,” said the Bayern Munich forward after etching his name into World Cup legend at the iconic Maracana.”I don’t know how to describe it. You just score that goal and you don’t really know what’s happening after that. It’ll be a party with the whole team and the country. It’s a dream come true to win the World Cup, especially in Brazil.”

After replacing Miroslav Klose in the 88th minute, Gotze’s historic moment arrived seven minutes from the end of extra time when he chested down a cross from Andre Schurrle and lashed a volley past Sergio Romero.

Meanwhile, Argentinian fans were clearly saddened at the loss including the team and its captian, Lionel Messi, even though he was named the tournamentโ€™s best player by FIFAโ€™s Technical Study Group and received the adidas Golden Ball.ย The Argentina players cut dejected figures as they waited to collect their medals at the end of Sundayโ€™s Final of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil. Yet as Alejandro Sabellaโ€™s men wiped away the tears triggered by their narrow defeat to Germany, their compatriots back home gathered en masse in streets up and down the land to express their gratitude

Russia will stage the first major milestone event next July in Saint Petersburg when the qualifying pathway for FIFAโ€™s member associations will be defined at the Preliminary Draw.
