Netherlands vs Brazil

On Sunday in the morning we watched the FIFA World Cup play-off for 3rd place, Netherlands vs Brazil. At the end of the first half the score was 2-0 to the Netherlands. The first goal was when Arjen Robben was tripped up by a Brazilian player so the Netherlands got a free-kick at goal and it succeeded. The second goal was when a Dutch player kicked it to another Dutch player and he kicked it in the goal. The third goal happened in the second half but Mama and I were at church so we did not get to see it. The final score was 3-0 to the Netherlands so that means the Netherlands came third in the World Cup.

I enjoy watching football because our father is from the Netherlands and football is very popular there.

Brazil vs Germany

On the 9th of July we watched Brazil vs Germany in the FIFA World Cup. In the first half, the Brazilian goalkeeper let 5 goals go in the goal. At the end of the first half the score was 5-0 with Germany in the lead. The Brazilian team and coaches must have not been happy because Germany was in the lead by 5 points. The biggest defeat the Brazilian's have ever had up until this time was against Uruguay in 1920 (it was 6-0).

At the end of the football game the score was Germany 7 - 1 Brazil. The Brazilian team's goalkeeper might have gone and hid after the game because he let 7 goals go past him. The coaches on the Brazilian team must have been angry because the Brazilian team lost the game by 6 points. The German team must have been celebrating because they beat the host team in the semi finals.
