Gary Neville believes that Germany taught Brazil a "lesson" in decisive play in their emphatic 7-1 victory in the World Cup semi-final on Tuesday.

Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville has given credit to Germany's "brilliant" execution after they demolished World Cup hosts Brazil in the semi-finals of the tournament in Belo Horizonte.

The Germans romped to a 7-1 victory yesterday, representing Brazil's worst defeat in 94 years.

While Luiz Felipe Scolari's side have been criticised for their defensive frailties, Neville believes that the heavy scoreline was due to Germany's "lesson" in decisive play.

The Sky Sports pundit wrote on Twitter: "Lot being made of bad defending but it was a lesson in 'decision making in the last third' and 'the extra pass' from Germany.

"Some of those goals were incisive , brutal and clinical all in one! To produce that composure on the two squared goals in that atmosphere was brilliant to watch."

Neville, who works as a coach with the England national team, returned to the UK from Brazil last month after the Three Lions finished at the bottom of Group D with just one point.
