This was not how Brazilians envisioned the first half of their quarter-final tilt against Belgium.
The Red Devils stunned Brazil in the opening 45 minutes, first with a Fernandinho own goal in the 13th minute, and later executing a perfect counter-attack started by Romelu Lukaku that resulted in a superb Kevin De Bruyne strike to double Belgium's lead in the 31st.
The Brazilian implosion and Belgium's first-half dominance drew plenty of hilarious reactions on social media:
