FIFA says its disciplinary committee decided it did not have grounds to open a case.
Johannesburg: FIFA says it will not investigate Brazil coach Dunga for allegedly cursing at journalists at the official World Cup media conference after his team's win over Ivory Coast.
FIFA spokesman Pekka Odriozola says its disciplinary committee decided it did not have grounds to open a case.
Dunga's words were caught on a microphone during post-match questioning at Johannesburg's Soccer City on Sunday. Brazil had won 3-1.
FIFA has previously acted against coaches who cursed during a mandatory post-match media session.
Diego Maradona was suspended from football for two months last November for his profane rant after Argentina qualified for the World Cup. The ban prevented Maradona attending the finals draw in Cape Town.
