The FIFA World Cup returned
to my attention today with the first semi-final, but the anticipated close
encounter between serial winners Brazil and Germany instead turned into a rout as
the disorganised hosts (missing their two most influential players) shipped
five goals in 18 mad first half minutes, and two more before the game ended, to
provide another eventful match in this entertaining competition; but what impressed
me was the way the Brazilian crowd, even in their bitter disappointment, showed
appreciation of the Germans’ football.
