Ouch. It’s really too bad Germany couldn’t break the dreaded champion’s curse.

You better believe it. The brilliant Belgium side has sent five-time World Cup champions Brazil packing—internet trollers were quick to find Neymar a ride home.

Other players will go Brazil through the plane and Neymar like this. #BRABEL #WorldCup pic.twitter.com/IGrZtOGErg
