The low class Germany showed after the being up 5-0 with no time left will come back to bite them. I could care less about Brazil, but this was really a 3-0 game. After the third goal so early you saw that was Brazil was shaken and nervous. The 4th and 5th came because of that. The 6th and 7th were simply a team kicking another while its down. It was pointless and shameful.
this is a world cup's semi final, not a charity game. what germany did was being professional to the utmost. that's a token of respect, it's showing you take them seriously by playing 100%, doing otherwise would be to take pity on them, and that is even more humiliating. what did you want them to do after 3-0 ? Play easy ? That's the best way to have Brazil come back, you may think it's hard to recover a 3 goal lead given the numerous scoreless draws you get in soccer but it's not that rare especially when the opponents are playing at home. it even happened during a champion's league final on neutral ground (AC Milan - Liverpool, 2005 in Istanbul), so imagine in Brazil. if brazil had gotten a penalty and scored one of their chances they had at the beginning of the second half they were back in the game (considering Germany had stopped at 3-0 like you suggest) All Brazil had to do was to step up and tighten up their defense, considering they have some of the best defenders playing it wasn't a stretch to think they could manage that but they allowed more goals by losing easy balls in the midfield and making unacceptable individual mistakes. shaken and nervous ? well that's a world cup's semi final after all if you're not ready to get a hold of yourself emotionally in such circumstances you don't deserve to win that's how i view it.you're supposed to win, and strike the iron while it's hot, you never know in soccer it's statistically the most unpredictable sport (ie the sport where there are the most upsets and situation reversals)anyway yesterday's game clearly highlighted the deficiencies Brazil have shown since the beginning of the tournament, they were lucky to come out of the round of 16 as winners against Chile, I just obviously didn't think Germany would prevail so much considering the tight games they had against France (my heart still bleeds), and Algeria where they could have easily lost.happy for Germany though they deserve to be in the finals and have been the most consistent and regular european nation lately (, definitely deserve a 4th world cup to be on par with Italy. say what you will about the germans but they are really restless and never give up even when they're lead by more than two goals.
whaha!
