Brazil coach Dunga has hit out at Johan Cruyff’s assessment that the current Brazilian side are uneasy on the eye.

Despite qualifying from one of the toughest groups in the World Cup and thrashing Chile in impressive fashion earlier this week, Dutch legend Cruyff said he would not pay to watch Brazil in action.

But Dunga, who is preparing for his side’s quarter-final with the Dutch, didn’t think much of the remark.

Dunga said: “It's up to him. Cruyff can pay to watch this game if he wants. There are many games on offer and democracy allows you to make your own choice. But I am sure Cruyff is not going to pay for the ticket, so therefore he can watch it if he wants to.”

The last time Brazil faced the Netherlands in the World Cup was in 1998, with the Brazilians emerging as the winners in the semi-finals after a penalty shoot out.
