Mein Gott: Publican counts the cost of Germany’s record World Cup rout

As the fallout from Germany’s 7-1 rout of World Cup hosts Brazil continues to sink in, one publican was left counting the cost of the World Cup record scoreline.

Hoping to cash in on the euphoria of the first semi-final, Greg Healy, proprietor of Róisín Dubh bar in Galway City, put on a special beer promotion.

For every goal Germany would score, the price of a pint of Erdinger would drop 50c. A Brazilian beer, Brahma, was also on offer under the same terms.
