So, I'm guessing the German team did pretty well against the Brazil team, am I right?

Some perspective:

- This was Brazil's first competitive home defeat in 39 years

- This was their biggest defeat in World Cup history

- This result equals Brazil's all-time biggest margin of defeat, when they lost 6-0 to Uruguay in 1920

- This was the first time a team has conceded seven goals in a World Cup semi-final, and it's also the biggest margin of defeat in a World Cup semi-final

- Germany scored more goals in this match than England have in their past two World Cup campaigns combined

Let the memes begin...
