Brazil 4 – 1 Germany: The Underdogs are in the Final Again!
By: Bruno Romani | August 18th, 2008
Brazil started as the underdog. A smell of inferiority complex was in the air. Germany scored in a mistake of Érika. Germany missed a few other chances. But that lasted only 25 minutes. From that point, Brazil became powerful. It humiliated Germany. The current World Champs did not see the ball in the second half. Many goals were missed. And another 4 visited the net. Marta scored a goal typical of people like Ronaldo or Romario. Pure genius. Cristiane another two. In the second one, the passed through 4 defenders. The defenders (even Érika) and defensive midfielders were brilliant. The reward for those players came in the goal by Formiga. Keeper Barbara made two impressive saves. The fans started screaming “ole”. We got our revenge from last year’s World Cup, and the “underdogs” are one more time in a final. It is about time to carve their names in history.

They will be meeting the USA in the final, Bruno. The USA beat Japan in the other semi-final. Not sure if you know of this actually. Just in case.
I didn’t watched this one but if the highlights are to be believed, amazing.

It would be fantastic for the canarinhas to get the gold medal before the men!!! Further humiliation for Dunga. I’m shocked to see that we beat the German women, I thought we’d never beat them! What a game!
