Brazilians cried, cursed their president and covered their faces in shame

 

Several buses were set on fire and an electronics store was looted in Sao Paulo late Tuesday following Brazil's crushing World Cup defeat to Germany, police said.
Police did not give a figure but Folha de Sao Paulo newspaper said on its website that some 20 buses were torched in a garage where unused vehicles were stored.



Another three buses were set ablaze in other parts of the mega-city.
Police did not confirm whether the fires were linked to Brazil's 7-1 defeat to Germany in the semi-final, which knocked the national team out of the World Cup it is hosting.


Brazilians cried, cursed their president and covered their faces in shame after their beloved football team's humiliating 7-1 thrashing by Germany in the World Cup semi-finals Tuesday.
After the fifth goal, well before half-time, hundreds of people left their expensive seats at the stadium in the southeastern city of Belo Horizonte.
