Germans deserve great win

I WAS very stunned by the 7-1 defeat suffered by the host nation against the Germans and nobody expected such a huge score especially during the World Cup in a semifinal. Brazil is very exposed at the back and Germany could have scored more than 10 goals as they are very fast and pacey.

They have very good eyes to see the gap and expose both backline and goalkeeper. Even if Neymar had been playing the scoreboard would still have looked the same.

The Germans are playing simple football and they play as if they are reading a book. They create opportunities and also break your defence and middle field.

They are very cool and well collected upfront, and they play as a unit. They are not selfish, but their passes are very accurate. Without underestimating any team I will give them the World Cup.

What I also like about the Germans is they have kept their coach for almost 10 years and did not fire him. Look at the results, and the kind of football they are playing is unbelievable.

I am looking forward to seeing Germany against Argentina. Brazil must start afresh and groom another generation for the next World Cup, but I am very proud of Brazil's coach as he is taking full responsibility and accountability for the loss.
