Reflecting on that night, Mesut Özil has now revealed what he said to a tearful David Luiz in the moments following the full-time whistle.
"Everybody knows the semi-final against Brazil, 7-1," Özil told Arsenal.com.
"Of course all the players, as well me on the pitch, was a little bit surprised, after 30 minutes [with the score at] 4-0, you can't realise - 'what happened here?'
"If you lose a big game like that in your country and you see the fans outside crying and the players crying, you feel with them.
"So what I did, I went to David Luiz and said 'I really apologise, you have a nice country and nice people. We learned there and had a really good time."
We're sure that this more than made up for playing his part in the most embarrassing moment in his country's footballing history. Good on you, Mesut.
