Yaya Toure, Romaric and Salomon Kalou were on target as Ivory Coast's World Cup campaign ended with a hollow 3-0 victory over North Korea.

Sven-Goran Eriksson's side struck twice inside 20 minutes through Yaya Toure and Romaric as they tore into their limited opponents from the outset, but only frustration followed in their final Group G game.

But North Korea, fearing more humiliation after their 7-0 hammering by Portugal, closed ranks after the break and only substitute Salomon Kalou could break through.
