Riccardo Montolivo, midfielder:“We’ve already faced them in Genera but the difference now is that they have add one Thiago Silva, who is capable of change to the balance of this squad. So it will be an stronger Brazil”
Dani Alves, defender:“I think that the the Brazilian selection its nowadays a reason of joy and progress for the Brazilian.We already have spoken about what its happening all through Brazil (the civil protests). Ours ideas have been exposed and we would like now just to focus on football and the big game that we have tomorrow.”
Luis Felipe Scolari:“When I accepted this charge again as a Brazilian coach, I didn’t do it because we have a nice and cool group, but for a matter of history. As a Brazilian coach I could be the unique one, alongside Italy, to obtain two World Cups.
