As CBS Sports pointed out in a tweet, this is the first time Germany has been eliminated in the first round of a World Cup since 1938. (Disclosure: CBS is CNET's parent company.)

Naturally, fans had reactions on Twitter, and lots of them. Of course, there were some World War II references, including one user's gibe that this was "not the first time someone has uttered the words, 'a disaster for the Germans in Russia.'"
