Watch Ronaldinho Embarrass The Manchester United Legends

It has probably been five years since Ronaldinho ran at a full sprint, but defenders should approach the Brazilian legend with caution nonetheless, because he can still dribble like this:

Observa al Ronaldinho de 19 años empezar a destruir las defensas españolas en un torneo juvenil

La Copa Mundial de Fútbol Juvenil (ahora conocida como la Copa Mundial de Fútbol Sub-20) mostró algunos talentos sensacionales en Nigeria. España, el campeón del torneo, tenían a Iker Casillas y a Xavi en el equipo. Mali logró alcanzar el tercer lugar gracias a la fuerza de Seydou Keita, mediocampista que llegó a convertirse en el mejor futbolista de Mali de todos los tiempos y el receptor del Balón de Oro del torneo, además de futuro ganador de la Liga de Campeones de UEFA dos veces, y también a la futura estrella del Real Madrid, Mahamadou Diarra.

Poetic Injustice: The Greatest Goals That Never Were

It doesn’t count on the scoresheet, but there’s something entirely satisfying about seeing an absolute crack smash off the woodwork. As humans, we like loud noises, and nothing makes us ooh and aah more than football’s own version of fireworks — the ball crashing into the crossbar from distance and flying into the heavens. 

Apart from that spectacle, great goals can be denied for a myriad of other reasons: sometimes it’s the referee, sometimes it’s a curmudgeonly defender or goalkeeper and sometimes it’s that idiot Nani.

Blessed with otherworldly control and technique, the Brazilian would frequently contort the rules of the game for his own benefit.

What's more, if you're a really great passer of the ball, which David Beckham was, you're going to provide a few classy assists for that talent.

Ronaldinho Showed Up At Barcelona Training Yesterday

Barcelona's season has been a disappointment based on their lofty standards. They haven't won a major trophy yet, with the Copa Del Rey the only prize left for them to chase.

That said, it would be hard to be disappointed with Ronaldinho around. The jolly Brazilian showed up at Barcelona training yesterday to spread some good cheer and horse around with his buddies.

37-Year-Old Ronaldinho Can Still Contort The Football Like A Warlock

FC Barcelona brought their brand to Beirut, Lebanon alongside Real Madrid, and Ronaldinho, wearing the blaugrana jersey for the first time since 2008, made sure that the club left that country well and truly globalized by the might of the Barca name.

Thousands of fans packed the Camille Chamoun Sports City Stadium to watch the likes of Ludovic Giuly, Simao Sabrosa, Gianluca Zambrotta, Edgar Davids, Roberto Carlos and Fernando Morientes try to overcome their aging bodies, but the star of the show was the Brazilian maestro.
