((HT: ESPN/FIFA))
As we all know, Germany needed extra time to beat Argentina in the final in Rio on Sunday.
But short of the political irresponsibility that the governing body is ignoring in picking their home nations, the new issue that the folks are not talking about when they need to discuss it is the concussions problem.
14 minutes after being taken off the pitch and being examined by his own physios, German defender Christoph Kramer collapsed on the turf and had to be stretchered off in the final against Argentina.
Kramer joined Mascherano, Zabaleta, and Pereira in playing after getting concussed- and there are those trumpeting the idea that this kind of machismo has to stop...
And quick...
Here's the discussion in "Last Call" that includes Taylor Twellman- whose career was cut short by multiple concussions.
