Brazilian here, and that wikipedia page does not even BEGIN to cover how absolutely SOUL CRUSHING and culture changing the 7x1 was. People who don't even care about the games were rooting against Germany for the soul purpose of revenge. There were fireworks outside whenever Germany lost as if it was a victory for us in and of itself.

July 1st and January 7th are now jokingly written as Brazil/Germany/2022 and Germany/Brazil/2022 (Bc 01/07/2022 and 07/01/2022). Any news relating to Germany are filled with comments about the 7x1, soccer or not. 'Goal for Germany' now means either loss, sadness, or even just something that happens fast bc of how the game went. My friends jokingly kicked me out of a groupchat for a weekend bc a side of my family is german and that made me a traitor

Yeah I dont think we'll ever recover but i dont mind bc its also funny as hell

In light of brazils first world cup game today I'd like to share with everyone the Germany x Brazil 7-1 semifinals from the 2014 world cup and how morally DEVASTATING it was

You ever do so poorly your coach immediately resigns and the country makes up a new idiom over it

Even our president at the time was like "guys that was so fucked up :("

#you guys dont get how amazing the memes are #the recent elections might have torn this country apart but the thrist of revenge for germany brought us together again like glue #this is coming from someone who could not be less interested in the world cup if I TRIED #i genuinely do not care. theres not a drop in my blood who would willingly watch a match #buuuut i will enjoy the memes #i still remember in 2014 when I was watching the game with my brother in his room #i got up. walked to the living room. thought it was a replay #but no #germany had scored another goal. in like 20 seconds #it was insane #honestly if brazil doesnt win this world cup people will still be upset and resentful #but the only thibg worse would be germany winning #none of this is actual hatred or anything btw we're very chill its just good fun and memes and no one wishes harm on germans/the country #but its still very funny #7x1 shall forever be ingrained #also if we win this world cup yall better be prepared bc we'll never shut up about it #but again. i genuinely dont care either way. i just like the memes
