Brasil 2014

Um, I’m not sure any of the groups at this stage is an underdog. Well, perhaps Holland, but all the teams have made it to the semi-finals at least once.

One could argue that, with Brazil without Neymar and Thiago and Argentina without Di Maria, those teams are in a worse position than Germany or Holland.

I was on the “anyone but Brazil” bandwagon at the start of the tournament, and they way they’ve played, especially against Colombia, has only strengthened my desire to see someone else win.

I’m rooting for Germany today, but ideally i’d like the eventual winner to come from tomorrow’s game.

And Germany goes ahead.

Solid marking there from Brazil

Germany!

Have I gone crazy, or is Germany conceding possession and striking on the counterattack?

Poor defending on Brazil’s part, too.

Not looking good for Brazil. Some really sloppy defense.

That was a remarkably dull goal…

Dunno, I personally liked it…

So when was the last time Germany lost a World Cup game after going ahead?

Very nice goal!

There was some really good passing there.

Brazil cannot defend for shit

Game over surely.

Game over.

This is a rout. Brazil’s defense looks like tissue paper.

This is a hell of a game. Most exciting of the tournament. And Germany are in splendid form.
Holy shit! 3!

3!!!

The methodical Germans showing up Brazil as the ordinary side they are.

Four!!!

Holy fuck 4-0

Is this a joke or something?
