>> Germany inflicted a historic 7-1 rout on hosts Brazil on Tuesday to reachthe World Cup final as Miroslav Klose became the all-time leading scorer in the history of the tournament.

>> Thomas Mueller scored in the 11th minute, Klose after 23 to take his World Cup total to 16, Toni Kroos in the 24th and 26th minutes, Sami Khedira after 29 and substitute Andre Schuerrle in the 69th and 79th minutes. Oscar scored Brazil's lone goal in the 90th minute.
