This was posted on the team's Facebook page not long after they crushed Brazil in the semi-final.
Translation:
We'd like to thank all Brazilians for their great hospitality and incredible geniality, Since 2006 we know how it feels to lose a semi-final in your own country. Keep your heads up high! We wish you all the best for your future.
And midfielder Mesut Özil tweeted this too.
you have a beautiful country, wonderful people and amazing footballers-this match may not destroy your pride! #Brasil
Well done, Germany.
