Really OT : World Cup 2014

[patrickl]

The Dutch can afford to bring on a goalkeeper just for penalty shootout.😱

[tocaff]

van Gaal outfoxes 'em all with a secret weapon for the PKs and the Netherlands will now face Argentina in the semis. What a game and it's a shame that Costa Rica lost, but somebody had to.

MOD İdea : Germany gives tank technology to IJA ?

BMW made engines for most Fw 190s.

Tiger tanks in Japan? Well... Hello!

3 hours to game time and the celebratory fireworks will be starting up sooner. TV coverage of the game, the fans, etc. has been going on for an hour already. People have left work for lunch and will return tomorrow morning.

Coming into this there were two matches I really wanted to see: Brazil - Germany and Brazil - Argentina. They both might happen.

I actually think Germany wins today (although my predictions have missed so often that might help Brazil). However, if Brazil wins, can't you just feel the late Messi goal in the final to beat the hosts? A Brazilian nightmare, yes, but a real possibility? Who knows, this thing has been so good because it's been so hard to predict.

Time for Mr. Löw to show his masterpiece [;)]
Great expectations here, hopefully someone is scoring an early goal [8|]

[patrickl]

Well it is nearly 4am here Singapore and waiting for the game to start!😛

[Erkki]

Goal!!!! [&o]

[KenchiSulla]

O my god.... 0-4

and getting worse... Brazil is cooked...

[Erkki]

5-0 whats wrong with Brazil?!??! 28 played and the crowd is in tears[:(]!!!!!

[Cribtop]

Achtung! Panzer! Holy crap.

Once the second goal went in it seemed like Brazil just collapsed morale wise. No defense at all, just shocking. Germany plays like this in the finals they can punch their ticket.

[Erkki]

I hope Brazil will find their team spirit for the 2nd half. That was no football...

[Grollub]

For the first time, a team is proving that the emperor is naked. Brazil have no defense.

The Germans goal efficiency is abnormal however.

[Cribtop]

What I find odd is that Scolari is known for being more pragmatic and defensively minded than most Brazilian coaches. How did they show up so disorganized today? I know they are missing two key players, but it seemed like Scolari abandoned his personality and tried to push up and play like Pele. I understand that morale implodes after the third goal, but the first two were just undefended as if by design.

[Erkki]

Silva, now absent, was the def leader and the captain. The commentators noted that David Luiz is now in charge. Thiago Silva was THIS great a loss...

I felt bad after the 3rd goal. Hundreds of millions are watching this game and the pressure on Brazilian players must be huge.

[Gaspote]

Fun fact : I didn't see any goals on live
I started watching at 00:15 and was in the toilet during the "festival".

Perhaps I should stop watching so they keep scoring.

I will stop looking for 5 min [:D]
