Brazilian World Cup coach will allow players to have 'non-acrobatic' sex before matches

RIO DE JANEIRO, April 9 (UPI) -- The coach of the Brazilian World Cup team has told his players that they are allowed to score the night before games, as long as they don’t do anything “acrobatic” in the bedroom that would limit their abilities on the pitch.

The Street Journal reported that Luiz Felipe Scolari addressed the issue during a press conference. The 2002 World Cup-winning coach said “normally, normal sexual intercourses are made in a balanced way, but there are certain forms, certain ways and others who do acrobatics. And that, no.”

The Brazilian team will kick off the 2014 FIFA World Cup against Croatia on June 12 in Sao Paulo.

“If it’s normal sex, okay,” Scolari said. “If this is normal, it is normal, it is not sending oneself in the air too high.”

Brazil will play against Mexico on June 17 and take on Cameroon on June 23.
