So much for the tv and streaming ratings today

 

[Jayrod]

This Germany team was out partying until 6am the night before they played the USA and basically decided they could win on no sleep against us?

Is this true? Hadn't heard that.

Dude

You serious, Clark?

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

When do the riots start?

 

[17seconds]

How often is the game over in the 29th minute?

 

[Raider Nation]

I'm listening on ESPN radio. Have any fans walked out?

 

[tommyboy]

murder rate in brazil just spiked up 400%

 

[sporthenry]

Maybe Brazil could sub on some more defensive mids?

It's always nice to see a negative team punished. Especially when it's Brazil playing at home in the freakin' World Cup.

But doesn't this also justify some defensive minded schemes. Because now teams won't want to be embarrassed off the field.

 

[joffer]

Brazil still playing with 11 right?

 

[17seconds]

German goalkeeper is pissed. Come on guys.. I can only give up 4 goals here get with the program

Dude

Well, the game didn't matter to them either way.

Pretty rare in a low scoring sport.

 

[kentric]

My buddy is wearing his Germany t-shirt and hanging in a bar. I hope there aren't too many avid Brazilian fans as he can be rather obnoxious.

 

[McGarnicle]

They're so efficient.

 

[Zow]

This is insane. I had a client in my office for ten minutes and 4 goals were scored.

 

[GoFishTN]

I'm calling it now, Brazil will not win the World Cup.

Dude

Sure it mattered. They still had to win the group.

Dude

No, I was kidding... But if this team was full throttle against the USA, I'm just the slightest bit skeptical the results would've been 1-0.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

All kidding aside, he'd be smart to get out of there before halftime.

 

[Native]

Scolari not making any changes? Hes good with this group? Really?

 

[gump]

I left the office at 1-0. I pulled into my driveway at 5-0

I live 6 miles from the office...not in Manhattan.

Dude

Sure it mattered. They still had to win the group.

Theoretically if we rolled them and Ghana won they could've still been eliminated.

Jaysus is going to need an intern to do all of the Go #### Yourself Catting.

Loool

He should be ok in the bar, but should probably take a taxi home

Some guy in the stands likely convinced his wife to let him spend a month of pay on a scalped ticket today :(

 

[Good Posting Judge]

This is worse than the Bayern/Barca tie.

Brazil playing this way angers the soccer gods.

Soccer noob here.....as in Arsenal is Brazil or Arsenal is Germany?

Should be at least two made at the half

Didn't think of that perspective. Lets keep it happy in here.

Do teams "let off the gas" in soccer? Could we see this thing get to double digits?

Right. They still had a ton to play for against the US. People are stoned if they think they took the game off. That goes against everything the German team stands for.

I think if Germany were to push for it, you would see some veerrrrrryyyy hard tackles.

Bernard is about half the size of Hummels

Bayern won

No, but they're crying profusely. (actually true)

Didn't take the game off but 3rd games in group stages have weird dynamics. No doubt they weren't opening themselves up for the counter b/c a tie did it for them. But Low was visibly upset at the misses at the end.

So you're saying that Germany will let off the gas?

I don't know if they took off, but they looked like they were just playing to not lose against us, where in this game it looks like they are playing to win. My soccer IQ is equivalent to a potato, but I just think if it was a win or go home game USA vs the team I just shut off bc this game is over, I feel like they role the USA by 3-5 goals.

Germany beat a team 8-1 a couple of WC's ago.

They won't kill themselves with a 5-0 lead but the way Brazil is defending they may not have to.

 

[Slapdash]

I wonder if Brazil wishes they had Alves out there on defense...
