He may be 44 years old and have a sometimes eventful post-career, but Ronaldinho has lost none of his touch on the ball. Invited like several former glories of Spanish and European football to Doha for a Barça-Real clasico between old glories, “Ronnie” delighted with a paw kick of which he has the secret.
On a free kick close to the entrance to the area, a little off-center, the former PSG or Barça striker found the perfect trajectory, just above the wall, to find the top corner of Paco Buyo, the former Real Madrid goalkeeper.
And if Paco Buyo, 66 years old, did not make the slightest gesture, we are quite curious to know what a goalkeeper in the prime of life could have done in the face of such a gesture. In any case, this goal allowed Barça to lead by two goals, before finally winning on penalties.
Other very prestigious names took advantage of this moment with Ronaldinho: Ludovic Giuly and Eric Abidal for the French, but also Luis Figo, Clarence Seedorf, Patrick Kluivert and Rivaldo on the world elite side.
