Scolari: Brazil and Barça the best

Few coaches boast a CV as remarkable as Luiz Felipe Scolari's. At club level, he lifted the Brasileirao trophy and won the Copa Libertadores with two different teams. On the international front, he masterminded Brazil's 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan™ conquest and guided Portugal to the final of UEFA EURO 2004.

Scolari raised some eyebrows in July, though, when he assumed the reins at Bunyodkor, who are, courtesy of an admirable unbeaten run under the 60-year-old, cruising to a successful defence of their Uzbek League crown. However, Felipão has a greater challenge on his hands: to lead the Tashkent side to the AFC Champions League title and a place at December's FIFA Club World Cup.

As next month's quarter-final with Pohang Steelers approaches, FIFA.com spoke to Scolari about coaching Bunyodkor, the differences between European, Asian and South American football, and his ambitions for the future.
