The Brazil head coach rejects suggestions his side received any favorable decisions in Thursday's World Cup opener, as claimed by his Croatia counterpart
Croatia boss Kovac was furious at what he saw as an extremely soft penalty when fred went down under a challenge by Dejan Lovren, but Scolari claimed he saw nothing wrong with referee Yuichi Nishimura's decision to point to the spot.
I'm not going to talk about what the other coach said. All I say is Brazil has five world titles. So Brazil has five circuses to win five cups?
I understand what my colleague has said, and I respect it, because I think the reason he said was due to the result, and I would probably be complaining if I had lost the match as well. But I didn't see us getting favored by the referee. That's just something that has been said and it will stay said and there's no point in arguing about it.
