Brazil 1-7 Germany was the shock result of the first semi-final of the 2014 FIFA World Cup men's international football tournament, played on 8 July at the Estádio Mineirão in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. It broke Brazil's 62-match home unbeaten streak in competitive matches going back to 1975, and equalled their biggest margin of defeat, tied with a 6–0 loss to Uruguay in 1920, leading it to be described as a national humiliation. The game also saw Germany score the most goals in World Cup history, their 223 overtaking Brazil's 221. Their second goal meant Germany's Miroslav Klose reached 16 World Cup goals, overtaking Brazil's Ronaldo as the tournament's all-time record goalscorer. The game was subsequently referred to by the press as the Mineirazo, evoking the spirit of the Maracanazo in which Brazil unexpectedly lost the 1950 FIFA World Cup on home soil to Uruguay.

Background

Brazil failed an appeal to rescind captain Thiago Silva's suspension for the match

The two teams had met in 21 previous matches,[2] but their only previous encounter at the World Cup finals was the final of the 2002 FIFA World Cup, won 2–0 by Brazil with both goals scored by Ronaldo.[3][4]

Brazil was hosting the FIFA World Cup for the second time (after 1950), and had won the tournament on five previous occasions. Germany were three-times winners but had not won the tournament in 24 years. Brazil were in the semi-finals for the first time since winning in 2002, while Germany were in a record-breaking fourth consecutive semi-final.[5]

The draw for the group stage of the 2014 World Cup paired hosts Brazil with Croatia, Mexico, and Cameroon in Group A, and they advanced with seven points before beating Chile in the Round of 16 via a penalty shoot-out and Colombia in the quarter-final. Germany had been drawn with Portugal, Ghana, and the United States in Group G, and advanced with seven points before beating Algeria in the Round of 16 (after extra time) and France in the quarter-final.

Because of the pressure being placed on the players, manager Luiz Felipe Scolari called in psychologist Regina Brandão ahead of the World Cup to assess the psychological profile of about 50 Brazilian players in contention for the 23-man squad.[6] Following the second round victory over Chile, in which several players cried prior to the penalty shoot-out, Scolari again used Brandão to try and ease the situation ahead of the quarter-final.[7]

Despite an appeal,[8] Brazil defender and captain Thiago Silva was suspended for the match due to accumulation of yellow cards.[9] Forward Neymar was sidelined for the rest of the tournament after suffering a fractured vertebra in the quarter-final against Colombia.[10][11] Before the game, Júlio César and David Luiz held Neymar's shirt up during the national anthem ceremony.[12] Dante and Bernard came in for Thiago Silva and Neymar respectively, both for their first start at the tournament, with Luiz Gustavo also replacing Paulinho in defensive midfield. Germany were unchanged from their quarter-final.

Match

Summary

Sami Khedira being congratulated after his goal

Both teams started with some attacking play, with Brazil having the first attacking chance. However, in the 11th minute, Thomas Müller was left unmarked by the Brazilian players during a German corner kick taken by Toni Kroos, and Müller deftly volleyed the set piece into the net. A quiet ten minutes followed, before, in the 23rd minute, Miroslav Klose scored his 16th ever World Cup goal, surpassing Ronaldo as the all-time World Cup top scorer. Klose's goal came on the rebound after his first shot was saved by Júlio César, and left the stadium crowd — made up of almost entirely Brazilian supporters — silent. Klose's goal initiated a flurry of German scoring; Kroos added two more goals in quick succession, in the 24th and 26th minutes, both coming on a first touch shot, before Sami Khedira added a remarkable fifth goal for Germany, leaving the the Brazilian home crowd completely stunned. All of Germany's first half goals came prior to the 30th minute, with four of them coming within six minutes.[13]

Brazil started the second half attacking and trying hard to score, but Germany's goalkeeper Manuel Neuer made several good saves. Germany's pressure was reduced until substitute André Schürrle came on in the 58th minute and scored two more goals - a tap-in in the 69th minute and an exquisite half-volley to beat Júlio César at the near post in the 79th minute. Close to the end, Mesut Özil had a clear chance for an eighth Germany goal, but put his effort just wide.

Fred (right) was booed by Brazilian fans when he was substituted

Seconds after Özil's miss, Oscar scored for Brazil in the 90th minute, but it was no consolation as the final score matched Brazil's worst ever loss (6–0 to Uruguay in 1920), and ended a run of 64 competitive home matches unbeaten for Brazil. The Brazilian players left the pitch in tears to boos.[14][15]

Toni Kroos was selected as Man of the Match, with 3 shots, 2 goals, 93% pass accuracy, 1 assist and 2 chances created.[16][17]

Brazilian striker Fred, who was substituted in the 70th minute for Willian, received a particularly hostile reaction from the home fans[18] and his performance was described as the worst in World Cup history.[19]

Records

Miroslav Klose (left) scored a record 16th World Cup goal and Thomas Müller (right) scored Germany's 2,000th goal

The match was a record 13th time Germany (including West Germany) reached the last four, and the 12th semi-final they played (Germany reached the 1974 final after coming through a second group stage).[20] It was the first time the two teams meeting held together a total of 8 World Cup trophies at the start of the game, as the previous record was their previous encounter in the 2002 final, with a total of 7 trophies. The final result meant that Germany had reached the top 3 in four straight tournaments, and became the first side to reach eight World Cup finals.[17]

Miroslav Klose equalled the Brazilian Cafu as the player with most matches been on the winning side at the World Cup, with 16 victories. He played his 23rd World Cup match, equalling Paolo Maldini on 2nd place on most World Cup matches, with only Lothar Matthäus remaining with more (25). However, Klose has played in more knockout games than Matthäus or Cafu - 13.[17] In the match, he broke the record for the most goals scored at the finals with 16, overtaking Brazil's Ronaldo's total of 15. Ronaldo was in attendance at the match as a commentator.[21]

With 18 total shots on target, the match had the joint-most shots on target of any match in 90 minutes at the 2014 World Cup.[17] In addition, many other scoring records were broken during the game:

  • It was Brazil's joint worst ever defeat, equalling a 6–0 defeat to Uruguay in 1920.[22]
  • It was the biggest ever winning margin in a World Cup semi-final or final.[22]
  • Germany became the first team to score 7 in a World Cup semi-final.[22][17] The last time a team scored six goals was West Germany in 1954 vs Austria, same as in both semi-finals in 1930.
  • It was Brazil's worst ever home defeat.[23]
  • It was the fastest four goals scored in World Cup history as Germany scored four in the span of six minutes (from 23 to 29).[20] In 1954, Austria took seven minutes (25 to 32) to score four goals, and nine minutes to score five against Switzerland.
  • Brazil had never before conceded seven goals at home although they once conceded eight goals in a 4–8 friendly defeat to Yugoslavia on 3 June 1934.[20] The last time they conceded at least five was in a 6–5 win in the 1938 FIFA World Cup vs Poland; at least four was in 1954 vs Hungary.[17] Brazil's largest losing deficit at the World Cup prior to the match was three goals, which came in the 3–0 defeat to France in the 1998 final.[24]
  • Germany overtook Brazil to become the all-time highest-scoring team in FIFA World Cup history, their total of 223 at full-time passing Brazil's 221.[22]
  • Germany equalled the record for most goals scored against the host nation of the World Cup, with Austria defeating Switzerland 7–5 in 1954; the next highest was Brazil, who won 5–2 against hosts Sweden in 1958.[20]
  • The defeat broke Brazil's 62-match home unbeaten streak (more than 38 years) in competitive matches dating back to their 1–3 loss to Peru in the 1975 Copa América.[25][26]
  • It was the first time since 1938 that Brazil lost a World Cup semi-final, having won their previous six.[20]
  • It was Germany's highest half-time lead in a World Cup match, with their previous best being 4–0 against Saudi Arabia in 2002 (their greatest win, 8–0),[20] as only two teams have previously trailed by five goals at half-time: Zaire (vs. Yugoslavia in 1974) and Haiti (vs. Poland in 1974).[27][28]
  • Thomas Müller's goal was Germany's 2,000th in the history of their national team.[28]
  • Müller became the third player in history to score five or more goals in two different World Cups (after Klose and the Peruvian Teófilo Cubillas).[20]
  • Toni Kroos' first-half double scored in 69 seconds was the fastest pair of goals scored in World Cup history by the same player.[22]
  • It was Brazil's worst result against Germany, passing a 2–0 defeat in a 1986 friendly.[17]
  • A total of 167 goals had been scored so far at the 2014 World Cup, the 2nd-most ever at a single World Cup after 1998 with 171 goals.[17]
  • Germany scored more goals than 28 teams that have appeared in the World Cup scored in all their matches at the finals.[17]
  • Brazil equalled their record of conceding 11 goals in a single World Cup, previously done in 1938.[17]
  • Germany reached a World Cup final for a record 8th time.[28]

Aftermath

Due to the pressure on the home nation Brazil to win the World Cup and the subsequent shock result, the media and FIFA[28] dubbed it the Mineirazo or Mineiraço, meaning "The Mineirão blow", evoking the Maracanazo in which Brazil were defeated by outsiders Uruguay in the de facto Final of the 1950 World Cup on home soil.[29][30][31][32] Following the match, German fans were escorted out of the stadium by police and police were put on alert for possible riots.[33]

There were reports of a mass robbery at a fan party in Rio de Janeiro and of fans setting fire to Brazilian flags in the streets of São Paulo even before the match was over.[34] A number of buses were burned across São Paulo and an electronics store looted.[35][36][37] At least one person died during the incidents.[38]

Professionals' reactions

Man of the match Toni Kroos stated that Germany were not at their best

Brazil manager Luiz Felipe Scolari said the result was the "worst loss by a Brazilian national team ever" and accepted all responsibility for the defeat.[39][40] Stand-in captain David Luiz and goalkeeper Júlio César both offered apologies to the people of Brazil.[41][42] Germany manager Joachim Löw said his team had "a clear, persistent game-plan", that his team were "extremely cool" and he realised Brazil were "cracking up, and we took advantage of that".[43][44][45] Man of the match Toni Kroos stated that "although it was a good game, it was not the best for us".[46]

Carlos Alberto Torres, the captain of Brazil's winning team in 1970, said that the country lost due to a "feeling of 'we've already won'". He said "Germany played how I like to see and Scolari's tactics for this match were suicidal".[47]

Societal reactions

In Germany, the match's coverage by ZDF set a record for the country's most watched TV broadcast ever, with 32.57 million viewers (87.8% of all viewers), beating the Germany v. Spain match at the 2010 FIFA World Cup.[48]

The match was the most discussed sports game ever on Twitter with over 35 million tweets,[49] surpassing Super Bowl XLVIII, with 24.9 million tweets during the game.[50] The President of Brazil, Dilma Rousseff, made a statement following the match on Twitter, saying "Like all Brazilians, I am deeply saddened by our loss".[51]

Journalist reactions

Brazilian newspapers greeted the result with headlines such as "The Disgrace of All Disgraces" (Globo Esporte), "The Biggest Shame in History" (Lance!) and "Historical humiliation" (Folha de S. Paulo). German paper Bild heralded the "7–1 Madness". The French L'Equipe simply said, "Le Desastre" (The Disaster). Writing for Sky Sports, Matthew Stanger described the game as the "ultimate embarrassment"[52], while Miguel Delaney of ESPN referred to the match as Mineirazo.[53] Barney Ronay in The Guardian described it as "the most humiliating World Cup host nation defeat of all time",[54] and Joe Callaghan of The Independent described it as "the darkest night in Brazil’s footballing history".[55] Wyre Davies, the BBC's Rio de Janeiro correspondent, said of Brazilian's reactions at the stadium and fan parks that the "collective sense of shock, embarrassment and national humiliation across Brazil was impossible to ignore".[56]
