For Brazil, they should remember it is a team that wins a World Cup and rarely have individuals been able to carry a team to a title. Brazil can draw lessons from 1962, when Pelé got injured quite early in the competition and they still became the last nation to defend the title successfully...This is Brazil – and they are unlike any other team. I don’t think for a minute that Germany will be relishing this game. Above all, the Brazilian players have a chance to draw energy from Neymar’s sacrifice. He has been tremendous for them in the last four years and they owe him a performance full of heart and fight on Tuesday. They need to leave their souls on the pitch as a tribute for this kid whose dreams have been shattered because of one horrific tackle. ~ Zico
