 London: Brazil coach Mano Menezes has warned his team about the dangers of complacency in Saturday`s Olympic football quarterfinal match against Honduras.
According to Menezes, Honduras deserves respect for going undefeated during the group stage and beating one of the pre-tournament favourites Spain 1-0.
"Honduras is a very well-balanced team that is able to change its formation with the same players," Menezes said
"It`s the result of a lot of hard work and when a team applies itself like that, it becomes very difficult to overcome."
Brazil advanced to the knockout phase after finishing top of Group C with wins against Egypt, Belarus and New Zealand.
