If I weren't so sad about Brazil losing, I'd be deeply amused by the fact that the Dutch fans broke Twitter with their 'Hup Holland Hup'. Oh, who am I kidding, I am deeply amused that the Dutch funs broke Twitter with their cheering. Go fans!

All the FB status updates of my friends currently sound infinitely more traumatised than they would have been if this was, say, our team knocked out of the cricket World Cup. Which is understandable, because there's nothing surprising about our cricket team snatching glorious defeat from the jaws of victory, but extremely surprising to witness the entire Brazilian football team fall apart after conceding one goal. I bet tomorrow's newspapers will have headlines like 'Brazil was "Robbed"'
