Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has taunted Spain, insisting they cannot cap Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa.

The Brazilian is understood to be clear to play for Spain ahead of next year's World Cup, but not according to Big Phil.

"He cannot play for the Selecao of another country after participating in two friendlies for Brazil," insisted Scolari.

"Only I know if I'm going to call him or not.

"When I do believe I'm ready (to decide), I will."
