    "David Luiz has not been disciplined enough. You have to have fire in your body and ice in your head, but he hasn't got that."

    Brazil have had 71% of the ball in the second half. It's much improved but nobody will remember that when they discuss the Battering of Belo Horizonte in years to come.

    Former England goalkeeper David James tweets:, external "Silva's needless booking in the last match has had more influence on today's match than Neymar's injury. Dante & Luiz are like strangers."

    "There are a lot of empty seats here. Holland and Argentina must be looking at this and will be thinking 'wow'.

    "It has been easy for Germany and they can afford to take the second half lightly, so they will be well rested for the final."

    Brazil's best opening! Ramires gets into the box and almost cuts it back for Chelsea team-mate Oscar but Manuel Neuer gets a strong wrist on it and turns it away.

    Germany haven't scored for 20 minutes. What an absolute shower. A disgrace...

    Dayboh Banjo:, external This is not the real game, this is Fifa pro for Playstation 5 being tested on live television. The guy playing with Brazil in this has fallen asleep on the controls.

    Adam A. Blackman:, external WOW Brazil complete embarrassment to their nation. Easier to be an England fan tonight. At least we didn't embarrass ourselves like that!

    Brazil will be playing for pride, as the saying goes, but let's be honest, their pride has been taken out back and shot.

    Getting hammered 5-0 after 30 minutes of the semi-final in your own country is something that will take more than a decent 45 minutes to recover from.

    Without wishing to overdo it, the ramifications of this may well rumble on for years...

    "It was totally inept. Having followed Brazil's journey I didn't expect it to end in this manner. It is about restoring pride and they could have taken any player off."

    "I am in shock. It is unbelievable. Their play all over the field, it looks like a training session when they let their mates play. Unbelievable, especially back four, we are not closing off. They are moving, passing so easy. It is difficult to understand the attitude.

    "Everyone was talking about Neymar but Thiago in this game we have missed. Scolari needs to protect the team, don't think to win the game but don't concede more goals."

    "In order to change things, Brazilian football needs something like this, to avoid that arrogance where they say 'we have won it five times, we will win it again'.

    "I would give Fernandinho a mark of one out of 10 for putting his shirt on the right way around."

  16. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 22:02 British Summer Time 8 July 2014

    Just the three changes at the break. Germany replace Mats Hummels with Per Mertesacker, and Brazil give Hulk and Fernandinho the hook.

    On come Ramires and Paulinho. A real thankless task.

    It is an unwritten rule of football that when a team takes a massive lead in the first half of a game, the second half is always a complete non event.

    Will Germany observe that rule? Or go for six, seven - eight?

    Callum from Manchester: Brazil are that bad I'm half expecting them to come out having somehow conceded another two during the break...
