Aamir khan, fans of Argentina

After the shocking departure of the football giant Brazil from the ongoing FIFA World Cup at the hands of the Dutch on Friday, soccer fans are counting the hours and minutes to the clash of the tournament, Germany Vs Argentina on Saturday.

Aamir Khan, a football fan (but then, who isn’t), has been rooting for Argentina to lift up the cup from the start. Though the actor hasn’t been able to watch many matches because of his ongoing post-production ofDhobi Ghaat, which has him playing the lead role, he has been showing keen interest in the quarterfinal clashes.

“I can see that Germany and Brazil are playing really well, but, I want Argentina to win!” Aamir posted on his tweet on Thursday.

Now that Brazil is knocked out, the choice boils down to Germany and Argentina, and only one of them could progress to the semi final stages.

Of the two, Aamir chooses Argentina.

“Have been supporting Argentina from the start,” Aamir tweeted.

PS: Though the bookies’ favourite too is Argentina, the popular octopus called ‘The Oracle’ aka Paul, that has predicted all the Germany matches correctly in the tournament so far, has chosen Germany to win the match against Argentina. In case the oracle comes true, Aamir surely will be heartbroken.
