Brazil coach Luiz Scolari mans up and takes full responsibility over their semi finals defeat against Germany. Germany swept Brazil to a 7-1 win during the semi finals match which the coach considered as the worst defeat in the history of Brazil. Though Scolari did not discuss his plans for the future but he assured the team as well as the fans that he will continue to lead the team on their last game for the World Cup.

With regards to his own career plans he said "I think it's probably the worst moment. I've lost other matches. When you lose 4-0 or 5-0, it's basically the same thing. Naturally, if I were to think of my life as a player, as a coach, as a teacher, this was the worst day of my life. But life goes on. I'll be remembered probably because I lost 7-1, the worst defeat Brazil have ever had, but that was a risk I knew I was running when I accepted this position. Life goes on. That's what I'll do."

Scolari has accepted the result of the game as well as the impact of the game to his team. He said that he is responsible for what happened and the gravity of their defeat. He said "Who is responsible when the team plays? Who is invited as the coach? Who is responsible for picking the team? I am. It's me. So the catastrophic result can be shared by the whole group. My players will tell you we will share our responsibilities. But who decided the tactics, I did. So the person responsible is me."

He continued "When we got to the first goal, the match was very even. Then they scored and, in the next six or seven minutes, scored four more. There was a lack of control which isn't normal, but can happen. And at 5-0 the players left a lot of room and, against those winning 5-0 and know how to play. We still had some chances, created some opportunities, but we're not daft. We lost a match to a great team. Even they were saying: 'We don't know how this happened' at the end. It was because of their skills."

When asked by media whether there is a need to reinvent the Brazil Team he answered "Why? Because we lost one match? Thirteen or 14 of those players out there will be at the 2018 World Cup. They're working, developing still. I think you'll see at least that many there in 2018, so this is a loss. A catastrophic, terrible loss. The worst loss by a Brazilian national team ever, yes. But we have to learn to deal with that."

Indeed Scolari is a strong coach who knows how to accept defeat and move on to become much better at what they do. One game may affect the image of the team but it is not the sole basis of their existence.
