Fifa World Cup 2014 Semi-Final 1 Brazil Germany Highlights:
Oscar 90′
Müller 11′ Klose 23′ Kroos 24′, 26′ Khedira 29′ Schürrle 69′, 79′
In a sorry episode in football's World Cup history, four time winners of the FIFA World Cup Brazil bowed out to Germany in a 7-1 loss in the semi-finals, which means Germany will advance to the World Cup 2014 Brazil finals on Sunday.
The 7-1 scoreboard shows little comparison between the two sides and accentuates Neymar's amazing football skills and the valuable leadership he brings to the coach Scolari's side. The embarassing score is also the worst international loss for Brazil. Clearly, the home advantage did not help the Brazilians.
The Germans will be going to their 8th World Cup Finals, and they are in top form having scored in so many decisive matches with the likes of M. Klose and Thomas Muller. Klose has sealed the record for the number of World Cup goals while picking a spot in the finals.
In a stunning unfolding of goals, Germany scored 5 in the first 30 minutes of the first half. The match with Germany will be remembered as Braizil's most atrocious World Cup performance. Brazil is losing its first home defeat in 39 years.
Despite Neymar's injury, not having Captain Thiago Silva on the pitch was a big loss for the home side.
