Luiz Felipe Scolari said he was happy with the performance of the Brazilian national team in a 0-0 draw with Mexico , on Tuesday, the Castellan, in Fortaleza. Stated that relies fully on their team and even saw developments in relation to win on his debut for Croatia. Still, left open the possibility of changes in the team for the game next Monday against Cameroon in Brasilia. One may be the return of Hulk. Even without injuries identified in clinical examinations, the striker was out of the match. Scolari expects to be able to mitigate their pain scale the player. Ramires was cast in the tie, and the coach admitted that others may emerge in the team. - The team is the one with some variations and entries either player, as today joined Ramires. Can I have another replacement to start against Cameroon, but is a team that you fully trust. Whether Brazil's performance left happy Scolari, the same can not be said of some questions at the news conference. He responded with few words when asked about loss of form since the Confederations Cup and was annoyed at having to say it still relies on its starting lineup. Lastly, announced it would make a question to journalists after the conference and keep the promise in a tone of irony: - No more penalty in favor of Brazil. You just criticized Fred.The coach complained about the lack of lateral Marcelo inside the area (watch next), the second time, and remembered the bid that marked the turning point in Brazilian debut when referee Yuichi Nishimura Japanese erred in giving penalty on Fred. Check out Scolari interview on topics:NEYMAR - He gets neither loses alone, is part of a group. Sometimes has a potential higher than the other and everyone knows it, the players also know. Let's do a job for us to have opportunities to win with or without Neymar with it more or less marked. ACTION - In my opinion, not the critics, the team played better than against Croatia. Evolved at least 10%. There is still room for improvement, but I am happy, I was happy with what I saw. We have habit of thinking that others do not play anything. Mexico has not had the same opportunities, but the same possession, almost the same kicks (NR: 14 submissions were from Brazil and 13 from Mexico). It was not back there, knows how to play. It was not the result we wanted, but I'm happy with the outcome.

TRUST THE TIME?
- I said 10 times, you who make inferences, think A, B, C or D. I just think what I think and put my team that I think I have to put. If going to class or not, is my business. You can do 300 teams who want, but can not make a difference in my thinking. RAMIRES OUTPUT - Naturally the card because it is a fiery player and as the game was too divided, he could make a foul, the referee who was to understand card.Then yes we would lose the game. Bernard has another feature, it opens, has more speed and also like to have it. WHAT DO YOU NEED DIFFERENT VS CAMEROON? Goal (laughs). We do not know the outcome of Croatia-Cameroon (the game is at 19h on Wednesday), if we play the position directly with the opponent. Today missed the goal. Were three or four chances, and their goalie was very good, made ​​wonderful saves. HULK He was playing condition. Choice made ​​by Ramires, but it will usually work this week, and if he feels better, you think you have a normal pain of any player since the tests do not show anything, he has a chance to return. OCHOA Disliked by keeper Mexico (laughs). It was very well, spectacular. Quiet, tranquil, knows how to play well positioned think it was the best game.And Mexico has a very good team with quality, has great possibilities. The classification is open to everyone.
