Brazil are back- Germany pledges respect to the Selecao
"But I remember seeing a very determined Germany and, on the other side, a lost Brazil". The Brazil of 2014 allowed the emotion of the occasion to completely subsume them, as Germany went about their business with brutal efficiency.
But Germany will confidently argue they have progressed, too, since they lifted the World Cup and thrashed the favourites to reach the final.
Marcelo (r) is the only one who started against Germany expected to start at this year's World Cup.
I think that Brazil will win this game.
For Tite, Brazil's national team coach, the crushing defeat at the Mineirao stadium in Sao Jose in eastern Brazil still stings.
It's the most jaw-dropping match in World Cup history. The style of play wasn't earth-shattering, it wasn't the free-flowing samba soccer that Brazil fans might have been yearning for - but it was successful.

Karnataka Assembly polls on May 12, results on May 15
Polling and counting of votes for Karnataka Assembly elections are likely to be held by the end of April or the first week of May. The Assembly Elections will see a three-cornered contest between the Congress, the BJP and the JD (S).
By presenting Gundogan and Sane to the media, Germany made another point: these two footballers, about to become Premier League champions with Manchester City, are proof that there is talent that was unused in 2014 now available to a stronger, perhaps better Germany as they plan their defence of the World Cup title in Russian Federation.
"The 7-1" is shorthand for the most extraordinary World Cup semi-final and on Tuesday in Berlin, Brazil and Germany meet for the first time since Joachim Low's team brought a host nation to its knees in Belo Horizonte. The Brazilian crowd even ironically cheered every German pass in the second half of a match in which they trailed 5-0 by half-time. It was balanced. It could drag Brazil back to the top of the global football ladder.
Neymar will miss Tuesday's match through injury.
"They are a great team with a good mix of old and young players, they are technically strong, but they also have tough players in defence."They can´t be underestimated, because they are clearly among the World Cup favorites". It was the ultimate sign of overreliance on one player and Jogi Lowe's side could smell blood right there and then.
Without the PSG man this time around, Tite has alternatives - both in personnel and system.
The Bayern Munich defender played down the resting of World Cup winners Ozil and Mueller. The likes of Chelsea's Willian and Liverpool's Roberto Firmino have been in stunning form for their clubs and will be ready to snap up any chance they're presented with. "That gives them the capacity to always come back". Bettering 2014's shambles has to be the main priority, and Tite's calming brand of calming pragmatism could be just thing to get them back to where they believe they belong.
