Dunga: No room for wrong move

Brazilian fans should prepare themselves for a win-at-all-costs mentality from coach Dunga for the rest of the Copa America.

Brazil coach Dunga hinted that he would show more pragmatic tactics during the Copa America's knockout phase, after leading his team into the last eight.

Dunga brought versatile defenders David Luiz and Marquinhos off the bench for attackers Roberto Firmino and Robinho in the second half of Brazil's 2-1 over Venezuela on Sunday to counteract the opposition's penchant for aerial delivery.

While that strategy appeared to invite Venezuela to attack in Santiago, Dunga was happy with how the game panned out, despite Miku's late goal ensuring a tense finale.
