I assume by “they” you mean Germany. Chances for Brazil are looking somewhat dim.
3rd place game
My mistake. I’m sorta new to giving a shit about soccer.
Exactly. The third place game is on Saturday, against either Netherlands or Argentina. I hope it is Netherlands, mostly because I want Netherlands out of the championship game.
That was nice of Ozil.
Yay Brazil
It may not be a very charitable feeling, but I am now feeling just a bit better about the 5-1 drubbing we got at the hands of the Dutch… We are no longer the holders of the most humongous defeat in this WC!
And Brazil scores the consolation goal – 1-7
Goooooooaaaaaal!!!
Yes, yay Brazil!
Aaaand it’s over.
Germany 7 - Brazil 1
My. God.
Apparently the German fans are going to be escorted out of the stadium to make sure nothing violent happens to them. Wow . . .
So, tomorrow Holland and Argentina are playing for 2nd and 3rd place.
Clearly I didn’t know that in my post about how he’ll blame the loss on the ref who booked Silva. It’s just that in the Portugal games, the guy here in Russia always said “Cristiano Ronaldo!” when he did anything.
Also, Hulk plays for the Zenit in Russia, and I’ve lost a lot of respect for him. And how he begged out of the second half of this game after pretty much no-showing for the WC.
Dude on TV is right. This will be talked about in 50 years.
Apparently they lost to Yugoslavia 8-4 in 1934. Been a while, though.
I don’t think anything can be inferred about the German team from this match(at least what I saw of it). The Brazilian defence didn’t turn up.
Is it fair to say that it wasn’t as close as 7-1?
His full name: Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima
Yes. But in fairness: Brazil, it turns out, never heard the opening whistle.
heh. An Indian tennis player tweeted this at the sixth goal
“Impressive first set by Germany against Brazil”
