Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has resigned after his country's failure to win the 2014 World Cup, reports Brazilian broadcaster Globo TV.

巴西队未能赢得2014年世界杯，主教练路易斯·菲利佩·斯科拉里因此引咎辞职。
 
Scolari, 65, won the tournament in 2002 but his side could only finish fourth when hosting this year's event. 
 
His team were thrashed 7-1 by Germany in the World Cup semi-final, their joint-heaviest loss ever and first home competitive1 defeat for 39 years.
 
Brazil then lost 3-0 to the Netherlands in the third place play-off. 
 
Scolari's contract was set to expire2 after the tournament, and Globo TV - Brazil's leading broadcaster - reports that the resignation3 will be confirmed on Monday by the CBF, Brazil's football confederation. 
 
UOL News website is also reporting the resignation, quoting two sources in the Brazilian confederation. 
 
During the defeat by the Netherlands, Scolari was booed every time he appeared on the stadium's big screen. 
 
He originally took over the Brazilian team in 2001 and guided them to World Cup success a year later, beating Germany 2-0 in the 2002 final in Yokohama, Japan.
 
But after spells in charge of Portugal, Premier4 League side Chelsea, Bunyodkor of Uzbekistan and Brazilian club Palmeiras, he returned to take over the national team in 2012. 
 
They hosted and won the Confederations Cup in 2013, beating Spain 3-0 in the final, and were favourites to win a sixth World Cup. 
 
Brazil finished top of their group after two wins and a draw from their three matches, before edging past Chile on penalties5 in the last 16. 
 
They then beat Colombia 2-1 in the quarter-finals, but that victory came at a cost as top goalscorer Neymar suffered a spine6 injury and key defender7 Thiago Silva picked up his second booking of the tournament to miss the Germany game through suspension8.
