A 7-1 semi-final defeat by eventual world champions Germany, followed by a 3-0 loss to the Netherlands in third-place playoff left Brazil in tatters but Thursday's friendly victory in Paris showed Dunga has put some self-belief back into the squad. "I'm trying to give the players confidence after the World Cup and trying to find a balance," Dunga, in charge since the finals following a stint from 2006-10, told a news conference.
