World Cup 2014: Scolari refused to flirt with norm

According to Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari, Brazil will not be "choosing" their last-16 opponent at the FIFA World Cup. With Group B's table set to be aligned hours prior to Brazil's kick-off, Scolari - theoretically - could manipulate his side's result to match-up against either the Netherlands or Chile. But the coach revealed flirting with his side's form, and disrespecting their already-eliminated opponent, was not on his agenda. As highlighted by Agen Bola indo11.com The coach said: "Cameroon supposedly have nothing to lose but they have their honour, these players want to go back to their nation with pride, and if they lose to a better team it is OK.” He added: “But they want to play hard, to fight, so I don't believe people talking about fixed results or Brazil choosing the next opponent. This is a lack of respect to Cameroon."
