If I were Scolari I'd bring on a second goalkeeper as Brazil clearly need two.

Neur ate his weetabix at halftime!  Brazil have come flying out here and Neur has made several big saves already.


If nothing else, this is entertaining!

As I've just commented on Facebook, if I was Brazilian tonight I'd feel totally mortified at that "performance" thus far. Credit to the Germans, they've done what they needed to do but one would at least have expected Brazil of all teams to give them a contest. Forget the Brazil teams of 1970, 1982 et al, this lot aren't even fit to lace the boots of the team of Ronaldo, Rivaldo etc that won the tournament in 2002. I just wonder what Pele, Zico, Falcao and other Brazil legends are thinking right now.

A Germany v Holland final would be a great final in what has been a great world cup

7-0 now. This is now a total farce IMO.


Don't expect the Germans to have it even half as easy in the final as they've had it tonight though. It would be embarassing if the final turned out to be as one-sided IMO.

Bizarre. Most of us could see this was a pretty poor Brazil side, but even I didn't realise just how abysmal they are. Step aside Brazil of 74. You've been replaced by Brazil of 2014

Don't get me wrong, this German team is probably the best they've had since the early-mid 90's and were miles ahead of Brazil in every department tonight, but I reckon Brazil have just made this German side look like the best team in the history of football. They won't get it anything as easy again in the final regardless of who they play, of that I am pretty sure.

The sadistic part of me now wants to see Brazil's hated rivals win the tournament. However, my sadistic streak is more than trumped by my hatred of Argentina and the thought of that human growth hormone fuelled sh. i. thouse Messi getting his hands on the Cup.

Anyway this was not a Klose game. Brazil got Mullered. Germany were kroosing through, I think Brazil need a neuer coach, schurrley scolari should get the sack after this?

The best way of summing up Brazil's performance is that they were about as much good tonight as the England cricket team were during last winter's Ashes series.

It was an utterly shameful performance by an ordinary Brazil team (without their two best players) against a very good (but not great) Germany team.


'Big' Phil will presumably now throw himself under the proverbial bus. And he should do because of his blind loyalty to crap players such as Fred.


I said before the match that Scolari would adopt a 'false nine' approach because he was left with no recognised striker. How right I was.


I am still amazed how Lucas (the PSG one, not the Dippers one) couldn't get into this team.
