The market has swung towards Brazil today making them favourites but I'm not convinced at all.
Germany to qualify is the way forward here. A bit of a cautious approach but Germany were my ante post punt so no need to get too involved.

Under 2.5 in 90 minutes looks a given to me but the odds are very skinny so I'm not playing in that market.

Good luck all, I just hope Germany get through to the final.

never seen that before

i knew Brazil were totally sh1te before the game ,but still  felt confident enough to lay 6-1 ,7-1 ,7-0 etc at 1000/1

bought myself out at a very large red just after half time  - but , good luck to the winner - i love losing bets under these circumstances

must do some betting now to try to recoup

hopefully it will shut the BBC up about Brazil for the next 10 years

I layed Germany at half time for £100. It only cost me a quid but as they were already 5-0 up it was pretty ambitious!
No one can ever say I'm not optimistic!

Looking at the stats it really is remarkable what Germany did.
Just 14 shots at goal producing 7 goals.

That surely can never have happened before - especially against a 'top class' team?

Well done Germany for nailing the myth of Brasilian football.  They haven't played the beautiful game since 1982. I missed all the goals because I was trying to mend the toilet.

I actually thought Brasil would go through in a boring dirty match.

Report lfc1971 July 9, 2014 4:58 PM BST
14 shots on goal and 7 goals is nothing unusual, have seen games with 6 shots on target and
5 goals eg. Quite simply goalkeepers rarely save any shots,. The main reason is goalkeepers
today are too tall. It is almost imopossible to be over 6ft and have good reflexes.

Add to this the fact that when young someone tall will be put in nets, not because of any natural aptitude. This will almost certainlymean that all keepers, including professionals, will be actually worse than someone selected randomly.

I can go with you on, say, 3 shots producing just one goal in many league games per week, even 'top' ones - but to amplify that to 7 goals out of 14 shots in the semi final of a World Cup level is just staggering.

I'm in a very solid position now that Germany are in the final. In no way did I ever foresee that complete demolition of Brazil though but i was very confident that Germany would qualify.

Holland v Argentina tonight is a very interesting game and although I'm favouring Argentina to qualify I think it would be better for Germany in the final if Holland got through.

It pains me a bit but Argentina to win in 90 minutes is my bet. If I'm wrong then I won't be too bothered.

Slippy you said under 2.5 goals looks a given but the price was too short to play. I am guessing unders were around evens but I would quatify something which looks a given at a very high perecentage of happening and therefore very short odds. Can you not see the contradiction in that comment based. Maybe just a bad choice of words.
