If millions all over the world are disappointed and some
secretely relieved [yea we know you], Luiz Felipe Scolari coach of the
Brazilian side is not frustrated yet at least not enough to resign as Brazil
boss, despite his side's second damaging defeat in the space of five days.
Before this competition, Brazil had not lost a home game
since 2002 and were unbeaten in tournament football in their nation since 1975,
but back-to-back defeats in the space of five days - and 10 goals conceded -
have left fans frustrated and journalists pressed the 65-year-old on his
future.
But Scolari was stubborn as he faced the press after defeat
to the Dutch and insisted the Brazilian Football Confederation will decide his
future.
"It was an evenly balanced game," he said.
"The players should be praised for the way they played. We didn't play
badly - that's my opinion.
"Now is not the time to talk about that," Scolari
said. "I'll put together my report and tell the [CBF] president what I
think went wrong and he will decide what he wants for the future. We have lost
another match, but life goes on.
"A year ago, I won the Confederations Cup," he
added. "It's nothing to do with the coaches. The thing is that we have a
very young team. We are not producing enough players, so it's not as simple as
another coach coming in to recycle things."
