What did Fred do to earn the ire of brazilians, btw?

I mean besides being a garbageman, but that can't be it, cause there were 9 more garbagemen on the pitch

And he looked like a clown for the most part. It always felt like Brazil were playing with 10 because Fred (and Jo for that matter) were incredibly useless.

Jose posted:

Its the defence that should take the blame though. Fred sucks but Brazil created nothing and he's not going to stop another team scoring 7 goals

tetsman posted:

Yeah, but it won't stop the Brazilians from blaming their attack while wastemen like Maicon (who was horrible during the game) are forgotten

David Luiz was to blame for 6 of Germany's 7 goals.

He was shite and was too busy trying to make himself look good by rushing forward to get a tackle off and constantly failing at it

Jose posted:

It owned when he sprinted 30 yards for a tackle and missed, then Germany walked through the huge gap he left and scored

quote:

Barring disasters, and even if Brazil do not win their sixth World Cup, Luiz will leave this tournament in better shape than he entered it. Fans and teammates would say that is deserved.

I liked MoTD pointing out all the times he charged forward and then couldnt be arsed to get back to stop Germany scoring.

Or the times he didnt follow his man and Germany Scored.

And the times he just stood there while Germany passed it around him and scored.

Then i remembered PSG have just spent £40 million pounds to buy him. And I lol.

Hes been playing like that for years. Not like PSG can bring in their receipt, ask for their money back and say "not working as advertised".

I'm trying to think of a Brazil player that wasn't complete poo poo yesterday. Even Marcelo was getting run over again and again.

I just came back from Brazil vs Germany. I went to the stadium, i was there. I'm here to chronicle a bit of it.

There were about ~7-10% germans there, rest brazilians. A few from other countries. I met a japanese couple, a venezuelian father and son, there was this old polish couple with a nice costume, i met two aussies. But mostly the stadium was yellow.
Fanatic brazilians thought they'd surely win. The more rational ones saw germany as a favorite. But who the hell could foretell that brazil would be obliterated?

There was so much energy in the stadium. Brazil's anthem gave me chills. Just imagine what it was like.
German players were jeered when they entered stadium, when they appeared on tv, when they had the ball. It was sufocating. The german crowd got jeered anytime they started singing.

I was surprised how easy it was to score that first goal (and the ones that would follow). But the crowd didn't give up. They imediatly started singing loud.

After the second goal the crowd was still cheering and trying to give the team morale. But after the third they just stood quiet. They knew the game was gone.
From them on the stadium was all very very quiet except for two major sectors full of germans. They were making a hell of a party.

As you know Germany scored four goals within 10 minutes and EVERYONE was dumbstruck by it. It was unbeliavable. I was secretly laughing my rear end off amidst a brazilian crowd because it was simply amazing. I knew it was history happening. I knew it was a magic moment. I was there watching the biggest humiliation in world cup-if not of footbal- history. It was truly unreal.
Numb would be the best word to describe everyone in the stadium.
The germans didn't believe it. They were like 'WTF'. Is this some kind of dream?
The contrast between the two teams was truly awesome. Total inefficiency and low morale versus clinical playing, masterful football.

How brazilians reacted? Some weren't giving a poo poo and were having a good time actually. Most were somewhat upset. Some were VERY upset. I saw people crying in the crowd, in the corridors, in the bathroom. I saw folks angry and picking up fights at nothing. But most were just numb.

Around 60 minutes there were brazilians in the crowd shouting 'please just end the game, enough'.

I saw a brazilian ask a german nearby how to say massacre in german. He replied 'Gemetzel'. And the brazilian: "This is a gemetzel! Now, how do i say mercy?"

They realized how well germany played and the 7th goal (stunning btw, i was so near it!) was cheered and applauded by both parties. There were so many scenes, so many details.

It was crystal clear how the german team wasn't even trying on second half. They were just controlling the game and scoring here and there out of boredom.

Overall people were being friendly, but you could just see the mass disapointment. There was an aura of utter defeat in the crowd. Watching them getting out of the stadium reminded of a recent Simpsons episode where brazil prophetically got beaten by germany. It was truly something.
I knew i was going to witness something big when i went to that game. But damm. That was the very definition of surprise buttsex.

Brazilians, game on. You're still 5 times wc.
Haters, you're still pitful.
Germans, you were my favorite from the very first round. Gogo! Germans were singing out loud "riiio de janeeeirooo" in the end. I hope to see you lift the trophy. That was some masterful football, just beautiful, intelligent, efficient.
Football fans, this is a day to remember.
