Menezes, 50, took over from Dunga following the 2010 World Cup finals and had come under intense pressure after the team’s failure at the 2011 Copa America, where they lost in the quarter-finals, and at the Olympic Games in London this summer.
Menezes, who was reportedly axed after a meeting with the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), oversaw 20 wins in his time at the helm, six draws and five defeats.
Earlier English football clubs Chelsea and Queen Park Rangers had sacked their coaches sparking fears in football circles of a possible “Di Matteo effect” Di Matteo was until 4 days ago the coach of Chelsea Football Club.
