巴西隊主教練斯科拉裏在新聞發佈會上表示,對於即將進行的英葡之戰,他看重的是比賽結果而不是比賽的觀賞性。而他的對手英格蘭隊的主帥埃裏克松最近也遭到國際足聯主席布拉特的職責,瑞士人批評説英格蘭在本屆杯賽中的比賽表現缺乏進攻性,同斯科拉裏一樣,埃裏克松也強調説他更關注于比賽的結果。

World-Scolari backs England in Blatter boring jibe
By Karen Iley
MARIENFELD, Germany, June 30 (Reuters) - Portugal coach Luiz Felipe Scolari sprung to the defence of World Cup quarter-final opponents England on Friday, saying he too preferred results over beautiful football.
Sven-Goran Eriksson's side, who meet Portugal in Gelsenkirchen on Saturday, were criticised by FIFA president Sepp Blatter for a lack of attacking football at the tournament.

"I'm not a trainer who lies and says that I want to win beautifully with the beautiful game," Scolari told a news conference.
"I want results, England and Portugal both do. Some of those who have played beautifully are already at home," he added.
'Big Phil', as he is known in his native Brazil, said he was expecting an emotional and exciting game on Saturday, but was not losing any sleep.
"I can sleep with helicopters or mosquitoes. I don't pay a sleeping tax," he said, adding:. "It's going to be a hard-fought game, strong and vibrant, as is the spirit of the two teams."
The coach said beating England -- which he has done twice already, once with Portugal and once with Brazil -- and taking Portugal through to the last four in this World Cup would be "one of the three best achievements in my sporting career."
