They look like they don't belong on the field.

Thought they'd be bad against Germany without Neymar. Didn't think they were THIS much of a one-man team.
How many goals does Germany need to score before they call the game?
10 please.
Do games like this grab the interest of the haters out there who say there's not enough scoring?
Best joke would be if Neuer runs forward and scores a goal.
The main problem is too many defenders who seem more comfortable attacking than defending.

They haven't played too well throughout the tournament, and they came across a German team with accurate passing and clinical finishing.

They simply couldn't maintain their nerve and their discipline after the first goal.

Is there any "moneyball" style analysis on the teams?
