Kaka celebrates with his Golden Ball trophy after Brazil defeated the US to win the Confederations Cup final.
The former AC Milan player scored two goals in the tournament and was named the best footballer of the tournament for his impressive display.
Kaka paid tribute to his teammates for taking Brazil to the title and allowing him to win the player of the tournament.
"I'm very happy to be player of the final and the championships," he said.
"Most important, as I've said before, I can only be player of the tournament because Brazil are the champions and if they weren't then I wouldn't get this award, so I would like to thank my teammates."
