7-1 and Ozil will still be under pressure for his final place. lol

Hulk cost €60m Swygart

david luiz apologising to god

OK, Neuer's face on fucking his clean sheet bonus may actually be the best bit of this.

I will never want Germany to win any game again

Some UI guy is getting a bonus for adding scrolling to the score box graphics.

Forgot about the 3/4 playoff game!!!

wonder if brazil will even field a full team for that

Most of the brazil players were on verge of tears throughout the 2nd half

felt for the players huddling and getting booed tae fuck

Schweini!

Are players as superstitious as fans cos if I was a German player I'd be thinking shit the final is gonna go wrong now.

dude i know says he put money on Germany to win by six or more, netting him £480. which presumably means an outlay of £2 or something?

rioting has started apparently :-(

or maybe it's just tail lights xps

Gonna try and work this out using transfermarkt.co.uk xpost

G
12 Júlio César 3m to Inter
D
4 David Luiz 50m to PSG
D
6 Marcelo 5.7m to Real (worth a lot more now obv)
D
13 Dante 7m to Bayern
D
23 Maicon 12m to City
M
5 Fernandinho 28m to City
M 8 Paulinho 10.5m to Spurs
M
7 Hulk 48m to Zenit
M
11 Oscar 22m to Chelsea
M
17 Luiz Gustavo 14m to Wolfsburg
M
20 Bernard 22m to Shaktar
F
9 Fred 13m to Lyon
M 19 Willian 31m to Chelsea

Gets me at 266m. Most football teams in history have never cost that much. Neymar (to Barca) and Silva (to PSG) must add 100m to that, obviously.

I could be wrong but I think the whole back 5 had also won the champions league (cesar and maicon at inter, luiz at chelsea, marcelo at real and dante at bayern) and i'm unsure whether oscar was at chelsea when they did it. So maybe 6 CL winners?

And I don't think I've seen many teams ever perform worse.

oh i presume gustavo was a cl winner with bayern too? making it maybe 7.

A least the average goals per game in this wc corrected itself again

The hige average

feeling really bereft that brazil scored. that wasn't supposed to happen. :(

remember when ilf came together to watch the 78 wc final? did we ever do another *live* viewing of a classic game or was that a one off?

Unless the BBC's table hasn't updated, Hamezz is still top of the Golden Boot standings.

yah one ahead of muller iirc 6 over 5

David Luiz.

germany must be feeling pretty good. germans in brazil should leave just to be safe. also, polish in poland should leave just to be safe.

The rioting thing was mentioned by the belgian commentator btw xposts

xps 78 final was a one-off, yeah. If we ever do another, how about doing the 2014 semi-final?

There need to be 6 goals in the last games for this to be the highest scoring WC ever

not sure if 3rd place play off counts because it's a friendly and nobody cares

for it to be the best world cup ever however, all that needs to happen is for tonight's result to continue to have happened

It counts for the golden boot anyway

If Holland get through and play the way they've played up until now then Germany will absolutely destroy them as well. Argentina keep their shape a bit better and don't pour forward in the same way but either way it could be am incredible final.

The clue was in the facepalm

Piers Morgan ‏@piersmorgan 2h
David Luiz will drive Brazil to victory tonight. He's been my star of this World Cup. Such passion/commitment/determination. #BRAvGER

what a fucking eejit

RTE playing Garth Brooks "the dance" over the German goals. nicely done.
