 KAKA (BRA) Man of the Match
I'm pleased, of course, but we've got more in our locker. For a first performance, it was good enough. The scoreline shows that it wasn't an easy game, but then there aren't any easy games at this tournament. Maybe it will keep our feet on the ground a little, and make us work even harder to improve. I was delighted to score a goal in my first World Cup match. It's an honour and a privilege just to be here.
Player of the Day
Kaka: the winning goal and some sublime touches
At least the goal that carried the day lived up to Brazilian traditions as Kaka found space on the edge of the penalty area to shrug off the threat from three hovering defenders before caressing the ball high into the net. He was the 'Fab Four' member who most lived up to his reputation though there were some promising moments conjured by Ronaldinho.
