Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari said Wednesday no decision on his future would be taken until after the World Cup following his team's record mauling by Germany.

Despite the 7-1 thrashing in Tuesday's semi-final, the worst result in Brazilian history, Scolari said he would only think about his future after Saturday's third place play-off.

"We still have work," Scolari said. "We have a commitment with the CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation) until the end of the World Cup.

"And the end of the World Cup is Saturday," he added referring to the play-off.

"It is only after this game we will talk with the direction of the CBF, that's when we will decide," added Scolari, who started a second stint as Brazil coach in December 2012.

Scolari also tried to put a positive spin on Brazil's performance, pointing out the Selecao had reached the semi-finals for the first time since 2002.

"It's the first time we reached a semi-final since 2002 so maybe our work wasn't so bad," Scolari said.

Scolari has faced calls to go after Tuesday's debacle in Belo Horizonte.

"Go To Hell Felipao," the daily O Dia newspaper said along with a photo splash of the manager holding up seven fingers during the game.

"He was responsible for the worst humiliation of the national team in its century-old history," it said, noting that Scolari had once said that those who don't like his style can "go to hell."
