South America at the World Cup: Tears and joy


When Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay made it to the quarter-finals, there was hope that this was South America's World Cup - and some thought that they could have monopolised the semifinals.

But Argentina were thrashed 4-0 by Germany, Brazil are now on their way home after a defeat against the Netherlands and Spain beat Paraguay. Only Uruguay made it to the semi-finals after a nerve-wrecking and somewhat controversial match against Ghana.

Our panel of BBC News website readers from the four countries give their reactions to their team's performance and tell how their cities were affected by the results.
