Hundreds of thousands of German football fans have descended on the centre of Berlin for the World Cup party. Their heroes have landed in Berlin later than expected. The World Champions were delayed for two hours on take-off in Rio de Janeiro because of a scratch on their Lufthansa plane. When loading the Boeing 747-800, the last baggage car touched the plane leaving a mark on the paint. For safety reasons technicians had to check the damage, delaying the flight, reports The Local.
