    Less than halfway into the game right now and Germany are wrecking Brazil 5-0, three goals within minutes of each other.

    This is right up there with the day Real Madrid lost 4-0 to 2nd division B Alcorcón.

    Except Brazil are playing at home.

    I'm still going to root for them because of my bet, but I just have no clue how Netherlands are going to handle Argentina. I mean, they barely beat Costa Rica.

    Argentina barely beat all the teams they have faced so far, including massive rivals such as Iran. So yeah.

    I live in a neighborhood with a large Hispanic populous and 5 minutes ago, the streets were mayhem. Maybe I would live easier if I wasn't Part German or Part Dutch. The day when Mexico lost to Netherlands was also pretty bad. But however, Brazil, you still tried, even without your star player Neymar, so GG.

    Oh, man, get a load of the pictures taken after the match. You can just see the disappointment on every Brasilian's face as clear as day.

    Oh well, Brazil's defense and midfield died today. Also congrats to Klose for reaching 16 goals in WC.

    I mean, I expected Germany to beat them at least 2-1, but 7-1? Wow.

    Hot damn does Germany know how to turn on the afterburners! This is the second mauling they've handed out this tournament. And against both of the Portuguese speaking nations in the tournament, too. Wonder if they were utilizing any trash talk in Portuguese, haha. :P

    Glad I wasn't near any Brazilian after the game today. I'll have to be with one for over six hours tomorrow though, and I can imagine the kind of mood he'll be in. With good reason, his country was abysmal today and were humiliated badly on the world stage with everyone watching. Germany showed no mercy. Ugly to watch, especially when they cut to that Brazilian kid bawling in the stands. :/

    GG PSG, 50 mil for David Luiz, transfer of the century!

    Brazil had it coming really. They've been abysmal this entire tournament, pulling through on the individual class of Neymar and the defensive stability thanks to Silva. I absolutely loved it. 8D
