The 1st half of the Germany Brazil semi final game has been so suprising I felt compelled to blog about it immediately. Already Germany has jumped out to a 5-0 lead. Yes, I said 5-0. There has been 5 goals in one half of a soccer game. Incredible.
So far in this world cup Germany has looked solid and clearly been a favorite pick to win the whole tournament. Combine that with the fact that Brazil is without Naymar and Thiago Silva it wouldn't have been suprising for Germany to be favorites in this game.
but 5-0? Really?
Brazil hasn't even lost s competitive game in their home country since the 1970's and Germany has just walked into the stadium and bombarded the host nation. 5 goals by 5 different players and to make it even worse for Brazil, Klose scored passing Brazil's Renaldo for most goals in the world cup all time. Klose is now the GOAT of world cup scoring. Wow.
I feel confident in saying that I will never see a barrage of goals in such a big world cup game of two juggernaut nations again in my lifetime. This is truely a historic moment. Now I feel better about the US mens soccer team only losing 1-0 against Germany. Tim Howard!
Happy World Cup Everyone!
