Brazil cruised to a 4-0 win over Chile at the Nya Ullevi Stadium in Gothenburg on Saturday.

For the first time since becoming coach, Dunga played four forwards — Ronaldinho, Kaka, Robinho and Fred.

But it was Ronaldinho who would steal the show grabbing a brace, the first from the penalty spot after 16 minutes.

Kaka made it 2-0 in the 31st minute.

Brazil's dominance continued after the break.

4 minutes into the second half Robinho hit the post with a bicycle kick and fired over the rebound, then won the free kick from which Ronaldinho added the third in the 49th minute.

His 25-metre effort swerved around the wall and bounced in front of Bravo as it flew into the net.

Juan grabbed a fourth on the hour mark.

"This was an important game as Chile will be our rivals in the next Copa America and in the qualifiers for the 2010 World Cup," "The team passed with flying colors," "We have to analyze each element of our adversary and put together the team according to the opponent." said Brazil coach Dunga.

"I'm happy with the victory but now we have to think about our next game against Ghana."

Brazil face Ghana in another friendly in Solna on Tuesday.
