GERMANY WENT FIVE early goals to the good against Brazil and never let up until the final whistle was blown on their host’s World Cup hopes. Thomas Müller scored the opener — his country’s 2,000th international goal — on 10 minutes and Brazilian could not close the floodgates, eventually losing 7-1.

The 24-year-old was somehow unmarked for a 10th minute corner and calmly side-footed past Julio Cesar in the Brazilian goal.
