Last night we saw the first of the Semi-final games between BRAZIL and
GERMANY.
Before the game, I thought that this game might go into extra time and then
penalties. Oh How I was wrong, the result was a 7-1 thrashing to the host nation.
Brazil playing without Neymar through injury, and their
captain Silva, who was suspended for the game felt that they could still win
the World Cup at home. The first ten minutes got off very well for the
Brazilians but in the 11th minute of the first half, things look
very different as Muller scored for Germany. In the next 18 minutes, Brazil collapsed
as Germany went 5-0 up in less than 30 minutes with goals scored in the 23rd,
24th, 26th and the 29th. After half time the
Brazilians came out fighting but the Germanys were really on form or was it
that Brazil made them look good. But Germany were not finished with two more
goals in the 68th and 79th minutes both scored by
Schurrle. With the home crowd booing their team, Oscar scored in the 90th
minute leaving them well and truly beat. Never have Brazil been beaten by such a
high score in a World Cup Tournament. Brazil has a total of 11 goals.
Germany took their goals tally to 17 goals and are now our
best team of the World Cup. But this is not Germany’s highest score with Golden
Goals. In the Korea/Japan 2002 Germany won 8-0 in their opening game against Saudi
Arabia. From there they made it to the finals to get beaten by Brazil 2-0. Isn’t
football a funny old game?
Our goals total now stands at 112 goals for the tournament.
Best four teams to date are GERMANY (17) HOLLAND (12) COLOMBIA (12) BRAZIL (11) Total of 52 goals.
So who will join Germany in the Final, Argentina or Holland?
