Brazil played like they didn’t want to be there after the first goal. Muller was left wide open on the left side of the net on a corner for that first goal, and from there is what downhill. Germany’s a great team, but Brazil seemed to not have a plan, and just melted after they went down 1-0. I thought Germany would win, but this was a shock.
I was in Brazil for just one World Cup game, and found the Brazilian people very gracious and nice. I feel bad for them that it ended in this fashion. Better had they lost 2-0, or in OT etc. However, it’s a sport, and anything can happen. I’m sure Germany has had teams that could have won the Cup, but didn’t in the past.
Will Brazil Show up for the Third Place game? Or will they fold like the US Hockey team in the recent Winter Olympics?
