This Brazil loss might be most devastating loss in history

- Brazilians love their soccer as we all know. More than any other country loves anything.
- It's a home game.
- They effed up their economy just to host the WC. Jacked up public transportation and gas costs, cut education and health care spending, displaced thousands of Brazilians living in favelas, rushed building much of the infrastructure needed to host it, and ignored the protests of millions of unhappy Brazilians.
- The last time they hosted the WC they lost 1-0 in the final and they've been waiting 64 years to host it again and win on home soil.
- They got their backs blown out.
- Miroslav Klose who was part of the German team in 2002 that lost the WC Final to Brazil and Ronaldo, passed Ronaldo for all time scoring in WC play IN Brazil vs. Brazil with Ronaldo spectating
- It's a legacy-changing loss. Everything, how they play the game, how they coach the game, how they develop their young players, will have to change. They have congressional hearings on football for goodness sakes

They deserved it. Chile vs Germany would have been a much better game. If only Pinilla had scored that last minute chance.

Why can't Americans just call the beautiful game football like the rest of the world?

The last decent Brazilian team was the one that won 2002 world cup. Rivaldo, Rolandinho, Ronaldo, Cafu, Roberto Carlos and Denilson on the Bench, the player with the crazy step overs since then they have producing shitty players. Last 10 years Brazil didn't produce a decent creative player. This coach is all about holding midfielders.

Who puts Fernandinho and Guztavo in the same team two defensive midfielders, and they couldn't;t defend

The word "soccer," which is believed to have originated in Britain some 200 years ago, comes from the official name of the sport, "association football." As other versions of the game evolved to include Rugby Football, it is believed the Brits adopted colloquialisms to distinguish each game.

"The rugby football game was shortened to 'rugger,' a term recognized in British English to the present day, and the association football game was, plausibly, shortened to 'soccer'" Szymanski writes. (Apparently ending words in "er" was a fad back then.)

Gradually, the term "soccer" gained popularity in the U.S. to distinguish the sport from American football. By the 1980s, the Brits began to part with the term, apparently, because it had become too "American."

Came from Britain.

Fred is the worst striker in recent Brazil history

They were better off including a flabby n sick Kaka on this squad and that's saying something

brehs, this loss as real world ramifications

They have elections in the fall

If Germans lose, they go back to having medical and work benefits, world class education, world class infrastructure, factories, vibrant economy, a government that works, labor rights, low corruption.

Brazil...well now they wake up to the state of their country, their new debt and the realization that they have to host the Summer Olympics in two years despite being far behind schedule on the venues and funding.
