Ozil comforts Brazilian fans

Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil sent his consolations to the Brazilian national team, which suffered a heavy 1-7 loss to Germany in the World Cup semifinal Tuesday.

Germany midfielder Ozil said through his Facebook account Wednesday: “You have a beautiful country, wonderful people and amazing footballers — this match may not destroy your pride!”, reports Efe.

Ozil’s message was posted in five languages — English, German, Portuguese, Turkish and Spanish — with a photo of an old Brazilian fan holding a replica of the World Cup trophy.
