The dreams of millions of Brazilian football fans have been left in tatters as Germany beat the host nation 7-1 in the World Cup semi-final. Spectators inside in The Mineirao Stadium in Belo Horizonte were in tears as their side succumbed to the humiliating defeat, ending dreams of a title on home soil.
The side were booed off following the disappointing performance, the biggest defeat in a World Cup semi-final and Brazil's worst defeat in their history. Four goals in the space of just seven first-half minutes silenced an entire nation leaving the shell-shocked nations an almost impossible task to progress to the final, facing a 5-0 deficit at half time. Their fate was sealed in the second half when two more goals by Germany's striker Andre Schurlle ended their hopes.
