Carlos Parreira Good Quotations

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.

It definitely feels different to beat Argentina. They are one of the references in world soccer. It's hard to describe how good this feels right now.

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.

This win gives us security for the quarterfinals. It showed we are capable of playing good soccer.

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.

It will be a good experience for us to take on a national team with a similar style to Australia, our second opponents at the World Cup.
