    I genuinely did not see Fred touch the ball tonight.

    It just sums up this current Brazil side that a complete diddy like him is starting every game for them.

    All the German goals where great too. Kroos first, his second and Schürrle's first. All amazing but they stood out.

    Truly is the worst defeat in Brazilian history.

    Unlucky :smiley-laughing002:. I'm sure you could keep us all up to date with the inevitable madness in the Brazilian media in the next few days.

    Could be hard to read at times it'll be that scathing :smiley-laughing002:

    Yeah, won't be great. The Argentine press has already started. Olé, a national sports paper has come out with "Decime qué se siete" (tell me about 7?) instead of "Decime qué se siente (tell me how it feels?). Argentine fans have been singing that throughout the World Cup :52:

    I was going to say I can't wait to see the Argentine reaction too :smiley-laughing002:.

    Pity though, I wanted an Argentina v Brazil final with "Brasil, decime qué se siente" being belted out as the Argies ran amock :icon_mrgreen:

    Moacir Barbosa Nascimento can finally rest in peace. Mineiraço has buried Maracanaço.

    In their Flamengo kit too :52:

    Germany x Netherlands would be good. The Flamengo kit vs the 'real' Flamengo (Flemish) in the Dutch.

    He was the goalkeeper in 1950 and he was used as the scapegoat. Created a racist myth that black people can't be keepers. Brazil didn't have another black keeper until Dida and their is still a small group that believe that black people don't make good keepers.

    It's a shock result but at the end of the day, the tournament isn't fair at all.

    75% of the tournament should be from Europe.
