The Saddest Brazil Fan Ever Had a Touching Moment With a Germany Fan After the Game

Iconic photo of the old man in the crowd after Brazil lost terribly to Germany has a bigger and better story to it

If you want to see the one photo that represented every Brazil fan after their team got absolutely annihilated by Germany in the World Cup semifinal game, look no further than this photo of this man in the crowd, tearfully clutching a World Cup replica trophy as he watched his players loser 7-1.

He was Brazil. And Brazil was he.

But what most people did not see was this dude and his incredible mustache having a very sweet moment following the painful defeat:

Here he is, more than happy to pass on his accessory to a nearby Germany fan.

According to this poster on reddit, he said this as he passed the baton, as it were:

"Take it to the final! As you can see, it is not easy, but you deserve it. Congratulations."

In fact, he was happy to pose with a couple of Germany fans after their big win.

Sure, he was probably beyond devastated to watch Brazil get embarrassed big time in front of the entire world. But he had enough respect for the other team to let go of his World Cup trophy. And in doing so, he let go of this World Cup trophy dreams.

We salute you, Brazil mustache man.

See you in four years.
