Ronaldinho was one of the best footballers in the world in his prime and since Football is not an unforgiving game, you can either be the most talented player or the most loved one, but when your consistency on the 115 yds × 74 yds pitch becomes questionable, the game will not show you any remorse. Ronaldinho aka Ronaldinho Gaúcho has been there and done that.
From the Pepsi-Coca Cola controversy to winning the Ballon d’Or, Ronaldinho always remained in the limelight and his retirement last year came as a shock to many. While his skills with the ball were unparalleled, the effortless grace also left everyone mesmerized. It was 21st March 1980 that this prodigy was born as Ronaldo de Assis Moreira in Porto Alegre, Brazil.
His first tryst with fame came at a tender age of 13, when he scored an astounding 23 goals during a single game. Soon after, Ronaldinho signed his first ever professional contract with Grêmio, which is one of the most popular teams in Brazil’s domestic league and there was no looking back after that. Clubs like Paris Saint-Germain and FC Barcelona got the opportunity to have the Brazilian superstar on their side for triumph in tournaments like La Liga and UEFA Champions League.
The ever-smiling ex-Barcelona star still retains the world’s respect and adoration and here are Ronaldinho’s Top 10 Goals That Are Impossible To Forget for any football fan.
