Brazil

I dont think Germany played well (barely won against USA and Algeria, okay against France). This was more meltdown of Brazil than skill of Germany. Unfortunately it still gives Germany a huge psycological advantage over Holland and Argentina at a possible final.

You are ofc entitled to your opinion, but so am I in telling you that it is quite frankly utter bs and fails in even the simplest form of logic.

Germany were brilliant, but the scoreline was more about Brazilian ineptitude than anything else. Their defending was comical.

Didn't Pele say this team was uninspiring and weak from the beginning of the tournament? Guess he was right

4 goals in 6 minutes sounds more like Germany playing well or Brazil-meltdown? you say my logic fails but where's your argument lol?

Just for the record, before tonight's defeat, Brazil biggest lost was 1-6 to uruguay in 1920.
94 years ago.


And Cafu was asked to leave by the cbf president, jose maria marin, when he went to the dressing room to show support to the players. He asked scolari, who gave permission, to then be sent out by marin...

and if it wasn't for Oscar's goal they would have broken more records. Today was the biggest loss margin in a World Cup semi-final. The record was Argentina's 6-1 victory over the USA 1930. GO BRAZIL!

No, he was purring out in praise of the defence before the WC and was adamant they would reach the final.

Well he was 3/4 right. Saying that because the defense was decent with Silva on the helm.

Midfield was terrible though and outclassed in nearly almost every WC match

There's a deep seated erroneous problem with the Brazil midfield that probably dates back to 1982. You simply cannot afford to have a midfield that are solely there to hack or protect the defence. No wonder the long ball was the favoured route and retaining possession was nigh on impossible.

Brazil haven't/hadn't lost a competitive match at home since 1975. Haven't lost a home match of any kind for 12 years.

There isn't that much talent in central midfield though. The only midfielders I think can play in a possession based system are Hernanes and Lucas Leiva and probably Fernandinho. The player development has to change

"Conventional wisdom has been that a Brazil loss at home in the World Cup would be a positive for the country’s financial markets. A defeat, the argument went, would sour the national mood and prompt voters to oust President Dilma Rousseff, who has sunk the economy into stagflation."

With a loss of 7-1, I think buying Brazil ETF may sound like a good idea

The player development has to change right the way down from the grassroots. If this is not a wakeup call then I don't know what is.
