It's wonderful for Brazil to have so many talented forwards. We have many good players, and I don't think other teams have so many, so I think that it's a good problem. We have good replacements. It's wonderful.

In all of my career this is maybe one of the most abnormal results I have witnessed. It was just one of football's accidents.

This is his second injury in around one month, he has played 70 games already this season and we don't want to take any risks.

They changed their setup a bit, that made things harder for us. But we were able to catch up in the second half, controlling the match again.

The only good thing that came out of the first half was the goal. The midfield never connected with the attack, thankfully we corrected that, allowing us to easily win in the second period.

Other teams have problems deciding who will be picked, we have problems deciding who will be left out. Some very good players will miss out because we can only take 23.

It was a mental victory more than anything else. I am very proud of my team because it is very, very difficult to beat Germany especially when they are at home.

The best two teams have reached the final.

Today we finished the first stage of our World Cup preparation, now we have nine months to focus on the tournament. But we need to keep working hard, we still have a chance to finish the qualifying tournament in first place. That's our next goal.
