"Crowing over the 7-1 win felt out of place for many who revere Brazilian soccer. Watching Brazilian children sobbing on screen fused German joy with pity. And it wasn't only heartbroken Brazilians who wanted the German team to stop scoring. "4-0 would have been enough," said Harald Schumacher, a 1980s German goalkeeping legend. "You get a guilty conscience" after inflicting such humiliation on hosts, he said. Sorrow for a fallen adversary could be seen as a sign that Germans are still uncomfortable about triumphalism. Nearly seven decades after World War II, reservations still run deep here about displays of unfettered national pride, especially if it comes at other nations' expense." - Adriano
