Kaka's sending off has tainted a good win for Brazil and has prompted comments from both Dunga and Sven-Goran Eriksson - unsurprisingly, they have a difference in opinion about the red card.

Kaka was dismissed for a second yellow card in the final minutes for pushing Abdelkader Keita, but the Ivory Coast man wildly exaggerated the impact of the shove by falling to the ground clutching his head.

The red card means Kaka will now miss Brazil's final World Cup group stage match against Portugal. His suspension is a big loss for Brazil, although some solace can be taken from the fact Brazil's 3-1 win has already secured secured qualification.

Brazil coach Dunga was left almost speechless by the sending off.

"It was a totally unjustified dismissal of Kaka, he was fouled and yet he was punished.

"The player who commits the foul escapes the yellow card, I have to congratulate him for that.

"We are left a bit in doubt, what do we have to do in order not to receive these yellow cards?"

Sevilla forward Luis Fabiano showed Brazilian flair for both his goals which takes the South American giants into the knockout phase with their final group game against Portugal still to come.

Ivory Coast coach Sven-Goran Eriksson felt the second yellow card against Kaka was warranted and said the Brazilians should not complain after there was more than a hint of handball in Luis Fabiano's second goal - which the goalscorer himself has admitted, calling it "involuntary [but] one of the greatest goals I've scored in my career."

"I heard Brazil complain a lot, but I don't think they should, it is extra difficult when Fabiano is allowed to use his hands," said Eriksson.

"It was not just once, it was twice."

But Eriksson feels Brazil have the mark of potential world champions.

"I think the Brazil team can go all the way, they have quality especially in defence.

"You need to be almost perfect to beat Brazil. In every way they are good, they are very good."
