Germany striker Miroslav Klose became the record scorer in World Cup history by netting his 16th finals goal in the 7-1 semi-final victory over Brazil.
The 36-year-old Lazio striker put his country 2-0 ahead as they opened up a 5-0 half-time lead in Belo Horizonte.
Klose moved level with former Brazil striker Ronaldo by scoring against Ghana earlier in the competition.
Germany’s leading goalscorer with 71 goals in 136 games, he is the only player to net at four World Cup finals.
His goal against Brazil came in his 23rd World Cup appearance, a tally only countryman Lothar Matthaus has bettered.
Germany have never lost a game in which he has scored.
