Ronaldinho: Vintage Free Kick Left Opponents Mobbing Him for His Boots
By Mike Cardillo
Ronaldinho, like Donkey Kong, has still got it. Playing for Atletico Mineiro at the FIFA Club World Cup in Morocco the aging Brazalian legend curled in this beauty vs. Raja Casablanca. One man shouldn’t be allowed to get that much english on a ball and doink it off the post. The ball had more bend on it than a boomerang.
Atletico Mineiro lost 3-1, meaning Raja Casablanca will play Bayern Munich Saturday in the final.
Afterward the Casablanca players swarmed Ronaldinho, making off with his boots. Legends may get older, but they rarely fade away.
