Brazil v Germany (2014 FIFA World Cup)

The Brazil versus Germany football match was the first of two semi-final matches of the 2014 FIFA World Cup that took place on 8 July 2014 at the Mineirão stadium in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Both Brazil and Germany reached the semi-finals with an undefeated record in the competition, with the Brazilians' quarter-final with Colombia causing them to lose forward Neymar to injury, and defender and captain Thiago Silva to accumulation of yellow cards. Despite the absence of these players, a close match was expected, given both teams had performed comparably well throughout the tournament. Both were regarded as the biggest traditional FIFA World Cup forces, sharing eight tournaments won and having previously met in the 2002 FIFA World Cup final, where Brazil won 2–0 with Ronaldo Nazario scoring a brace and earning their fifth title.
