Dunga: Brazil must restore fans' confidence

Dunga is aware of the tough job ahead of him as Brazil look to return to their dominant ways in the world of international football.

Brazil were humiliated on home soil by Germany at last year's World Cup and were knocked out of the Copa America quarter-finals by Paraguay.

"In '94 we were champions and the Copa America was next. In 2002, we were champions and there was an absurd pressure in 2006," he said.

"This is one of the differences from Brazil, you win and the next day you're expected to keep winning. 

"Being world champion is important, but the main thing is to show the trajectory of these players, the price they had to pay to reach the title.

"We must seize every moment to improve and grow equally."
