SportingLife - Scolari takes on England in the first game of his second spell as Brazil manager on Wednesday.
The 64-year-old could have been sitting in the home dugout had history taken a different course. Six-and-a-half years ago the Football Association (FA) approached Scolari asking him if he was interested in taking over from Sven Goran-Eriksson after the 2006 World Cup.
