In what would come as no surprise to football lovers around the world; Brazil's beleaguered manager has been fired within hours of Brazil's humiliating loss to the Netherlands in the match for third and fourth place..............
According to Brazil's leading sports daily O Globo Scolari who led Brazil to the last of their record five World Cup triumphs way back in 2002 was held almost unilaterally responsible for the team's back to back 7-1 and 3-0 losses against two European sides that were supposedly inferior to their team according to legions of Brazilian football fans.........
On his part, Scolari had maintained a brave face and said that he would be submitting a detailed and exhaustive report outlining the reasons for the team's debacle to the Brazilian Football Confederation and his ultimate fate would only be decided once the CBF had received his report and minutely scrutinised the same.........
However O Globo called his bluff and quoted high ranking Football Confederation officials who confirmed the fact that Scolari had been sacked from his post with immediate effect on Sunday night and that an official confirmation of the same would be put out by the Confederation on Monday morning and the same is eagerly awaited..........
Tite the so called magician who led Brazilian domestic club Corinthians to the Libertadores Cup title recently as well as the Club World Cup in 2012 and Muricy Ramalho, the current boss of club side Sau Paulo are being touted as Scolari's possible replacements even though there is an increasing clamour for the appointment of a foreigner as the boss of a thoroughly disgraced Brazilian soccer team..........
