Luiz Felipe Scolari is convinced Brazil can beat Germany and make it through to a dream World Cup final despite Neymar’s absence.

Brazil will take on Germany at the Estadio Mineirao on Tuesday without their best player and leading scorer, who was ruled out of the World Cup after fracturing a verterbrae in last week’s win over Colombia.

An incredible wave of sadness followed the news that Neymar had been ruled out.

The players shed tears and many of the 200 million football-mad Brazilians feared how their team would cope without their talisman.

But Scolari has moved on from the incident and he has challenged the rest of his squad to reach the Maracana final for their injured star.

'He has done his share. Now it’s up to us to do our share,' the Brazil coach told a press conference on the eve of the match.

There was a game in 2012, world cup qualification Germany-Sweden, where Germany was leading 3-0 at half time, and the game ended in a 4-4 draw. Hope the players remember that day and won’t get cocky now.

Yes, I am happy for him. This will be his last big tournament, I guess.

5-0 Germany at half time....whoa!!!! Who would have thought that?

Hope you are enjoying this. : )
