    "Shocking defending as the boos ring round the stadium. Again another tap in. The marking is totally non existent. Look at David Luiz standing on his heels. Ridiculous."

  3. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 22:27 British Summer Time 8 July 2014

    Fred is replaced by Willian and Fred gets dog's abuse from the crowd, which continues when the camera picks him out on the bench.

    That's poor. It's not his fault.

    "Brazil's defending is even worse than England's. A knife through hot butter does not even do it justice. Every single fan is now booing."

  5. GOALpublished at 22:25 British Summer Time 8 July 2014

    The boos ring out as Germany try to score for the first time in half an hour - and promptly do. The move down the right comes to Philipp Lahm, he gets his head up and picks out Andre Schurrle in space, eight yards out, and he slots home.

    This would be the biggest win in a World Cup semi-final.

    "Muller is playing centre forward for Germany and that creates a different problem because he is playing on the last defender's shoulder."

    Where's the defence?!

    Germany attack down their left and when the cross comes over Thomas Muller is all alone, in oceans of space. He would surely bag a sixth but Julio Cesar comes way out of his goal to sweep away.

    "This has become a nothing game. The post-mortem for this defeat will go on for days, months, possibly years. This is so unprecedented for Brazil."

    "Losing in front of your home crowd. You wish the ground would open and take you down.

    "And will time ever pass? Will time never pass for us?"

    Not my words, the words of Morrissey. But these Brazil players will feel like time really is standing still as this half crawls along.

    Anthony Shaw:, external I generally think I could do better than the Brazilian defence. And I'm an asthmatic nerd with no sporting ability.

    Tony O'Brien:, external Brazil resorting to outrageous dives. Embarrassing and pathetic.

    "Comparing Fred to those great World Cup strikers, and his movement is non existent. You have to blame Scolari for continuing to pick him."

  12. Postpublished at 22:20 British Summer Time 8 July 2014

    Fred is getting hammered from the terraces which seems a bit harsh to me. Not that he's had a good game but he's hardly to blame for the chronic defending.

    "Germany have been incredible. They epitomise everything German football is about. Muller is a fabulous player.

    "Any time Brazil's players get into the box they are going to the ground cheaply. They are doing anything to try to get a consolation goal."

    A storm and misery in Brazil, sun and beers in New York. It may not be Berlin, but pretty much anywhere will feel like home to Germans at the moment. Their side are 30 minutes away from the final and a chance to secure a fourth World Cup.

    Maicon glides in at the back post and goes to ground - that's a dive. Nothing given.

    "Brazil's fans are seeking a scapegoat - and it sounded like Fred might be the man judging by the toxic reaction to a tame finish from the struggling striker."

  17. GREAT SAVE!published at 22:16 British Summer Time 8 July 2014

    Almost six! Germany's first real attack of the second half and Thomas Muller is in, he tries to go round Julio Cesar but the goalkeeper tackles him well.

    And then wow what a save! Muller bends in a beauty from range and Cesar turns it away. Muller may well end the night eclipsing that Miroslav Klose record...

    "Klose gives a much better balance to the team. Incredible achievement and a nice final to look forward to for him. A good night's work. People say the number nine is disappearing from the game but Klose is proving you have to have one."

  19. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 22:14 British Summer Time 8 July 2014

    Miroslav Klose is off, he won't add to his record of 16 goals. Andre Schurrle on in his place, and Germany have one substitute left to rest another first team player.

    Can Joachim Low bring himself on?

    What do you reckon David Luiz has got in his head? I reckon he just permanently has Jamiroquai on a loop.
