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.

Planning doesn't depend on us. I wanted to play three or four games. The FIFA calendar isn't enough.

You Germans moan too much and should stop. We do not believe you. Germany will be thereabouts next year.

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.

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.

The best two teams have reached the final.
