The incredible, at the start of the World Cup, is real: Brazil is out in the last 8. More, France, the team nobody would bet on is actually alive and playing a heck-of-a-game.

So, the semi-finals are:

Germany - Italy
Portugal - France

The World Cup will remain in Europe this time.

One more thing: France really deserved to win the game and go through. I am a Brazil fan, but they have shown nothing of the sorts of football we enjoyed. Zidane actually was the Ronaldinho of this World Cup.
