Holy Mary, mother of god, was that one of the worst ass-whoopings in the history of sport.
Like, it’s so unbelievable, that it’s really difficult for me to get my thoughts straight, and post something witty.
All I know is that I would have bet on Germany winning this game, but dear god, not by a 7-1 score. Brazil looked vulnerable throughout every game prior to this, but they literally weren’t even trying to play a game today.
But whatever. I’m not a fan of pretty much anything Brazil, and seeing their team get obliterated on their home soil, while their fans are shown bawling on global television brought endless glee for my sadistic enjoyment.
It was entertaining through and through, mostly because of the European commentators, for whom it’s seemingly customary for them to be so opinionated, and inject so much hyperbole into their commentary; there were no less than seven different analogies for how humiliating it was for Brazil to lose like they did throughout the second half.
If there’s one thing that the commentary pointed out that’s true, it’s the fact that this is a game that will go down in history, and will easily be recalled at a moment’s notice, or any time any team is getting blown out of any soccer game anywhere. “Germany/Brazil” is now an analogy for any instance of a crushing humiliating defeat.
And then came the point in the match where Brazilians did what Brazilians seem to do best, based on my experiences with them through online gaming: trolling. After Germany scored their seventh goal, the sarcastic cheering for the opponents began, and the unmerciful booing for their countrymen who could do nothing right intensified.
Huehuehuehue, indeed. Braz’owned.
