Semifinal 1, Brazil vs Germany, Wednesday 8am SS5+TVOne

TAB picking Germany as the slight favourites to progress to the final, paying $1.82 compared to Brazil's 1.92.

Thats decent money when I think Germany are pretty much assured of going through.

Willian in for Neymar.

If in doubt, pick the home team!

And in for Thiago Silva:

I'm not in doubt. Germany to win.

Although I think that on form Germany might be slight favourites you can't right off Brazil as not only are they the home side but they have not played  to their potential.

Brazil 1- Germany 0....according to BBC pundit "Lawro"

Will be interesting to see what Brazil's defence looks like without Thiago Silva. I think he's possibly a bigger loss for them than Neymar - he's the only Brazilian defender you can expect to be in the right place every time. All the rest have a tendency to bomb forward into midfield or come flying out to shut down the ball. Which works if there's a rock solid guy at the back to mop up if it doesn't come off, but who's that going to be now? Dante?

I laugh at the 'please recind the yellow card cause it was unjust' call. They walk into FIFA HQ with that request and they will get laughed out of the building. He knew going into the game what another yellow card meant so suck it up.

Yeah, Brazil has certainly shown its capacity to whine at this World Cup....

Dante likely to replace Silva. He's a very good defender, playing against his german team mates will give him extra boost.

Germany will win 2:1

I think Thiago Silva is a significantly better player than Dante. Brazil will miss his leadership too

Plus, the foul that earned him a yellow against Colombia was pointless. 

Not like he was going after a guy just about to score.

Brazil 0 - Germany 0 (45 mins)

Brazil 1 - Germany 0 (90 mins)

4-0 to Germany after 25 mins hahahahahahahahaha

F@@K .... 

5-0 holy shit!

Make that 5. God this is good.

Match fixing ??

Makes you wonder with the back 4 non existant

Germans will not win the final !!!!!!!!!!!!  too bloody cocky , wait until you meet Messi & Co.... lol 

Yeah Argentina have looked way better.......   

Are you just upset because you bet against them? Haha. I'm sure this absolute molestation will make both Netherlands and Argentina a bit nervous. And the Germans the favourites to win the whole thing.

If Argentina win it, there'll be a riot in Brazil.

Argies all the way...only 24 hours to go...lol

Wish they'd show more crowd shots of sobbing women and children. Hilarious stuff.

In 30 years of watching world cups that was easily the most bizarre 5 minutes of football I can think of.

Shit is gonna get real in Brazil. You thought the natives were restless before the WC started? Its going to hit a whole new level in about 60 mins time.

Boring Germany making  me fall asleep ............zzzzzz...  lol...

said on radio that all the bars with foreigners have been locked to keep the rioters out.

6-0 now.

Germany too good and are far the best team. Even Argentina won't get close.

I can see the crying now "FIFA cost us the WC. You let Neymar get kicked and you suspended our captain"

If Neymar had been playing and the captain was playing and they had Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, they still would have been ass raped.

This has been such a clinical performance of good football (and comical Brazilian football) that if I were Argentina or Netherlands, I would be a bit alarmed by this.
