Germany Celebrates World Cup Win

Players of the German national soccer team celebrate on a truck during their return to Berlin earlier today. Germany's World Cup winners shared their fourth title with hundreds of thousands of fans by parading the trophy through cheering throngs to celebrate at the Brandenburg Gate on Tuesday. An estimated 400,000 people packed the "fan mile" in front of the Berlin landmark to welcome home coach Joachim Loew's team and the trophy — which returned to Germany for the first time in 24 years.

Question: You realize that the World Cup continued after the United States was ousted and that Germany won, right?
