Ronaldinho: Then and Now

   

We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to present you with a pretty cool commercial featuring the one they call Ronaldinho.


  • http://portugal.worldcupblog.org Luis Paulo

    If someone is wondering, that is a real tape of Ronaldinho at the age of 10 or something

  • Euler

    I’ve seen that! It’s a promotional Nike video. They got this tape of him young than he reproduced the moves. Its absolutely stunning. They should let that avaluable in hi-resolution for download at Nike site.

    Oh yeah, that Brazil airport commercial has got to be the best one i’ve ever seen as well. Another I like is the Secret Tournament.

    Here is a good site for your enjoyment.

    Luis Paulo have a point… Nike commercials are really cool. I love that Brazil vs Portugal in a stadium before a game and at the end the ref hits Ronaldinho. The players then line up to hear the anthems all messed up.

    Hey Soze, thanks for the site!

    At page 4 you can download the “Nike Olé” I mentioned before.

    Anouther classic. That Ronaldinho move is un-beliavable…i believe it’s called the ‘elastica’ There was a documentary here in Canada not too long ago called ‘Ginga: the soul of Brazilian football’. It showed that footage as well as more of a young Ronaldinho…even then you can tell he was special. If you guys can find this documentary, I highly recomend it.

    It was ROBINHO on Ginga.
