Ronaldinho The King

The rivalry in Spanish La liga is fierce, and when the match is between Real madrid and Barcelona, the tempers are particularly high. The 0-3 Scoreline for Barca was cruel to Madrid's plan but neverthless it brought out in show the brilliance of Ronaldinho.

Seldom do fans of the home team stand up in praise of a player from the visiting team. The last time such a thing happened was in 1983, when Diego Maradona from the visiting Barcelona team left the Madrid fans spell bound with an excellent display of messmerising football. This time around it was another Barca player in the form of Ronaldinho. Real madrid fans must have not felt they were watching a player from one of their bitterest rival, rather they must have been getting the feel of a magician displaying his skills, because those goals were truly unbelieveable. Being a ardent Real madrid fan, i feel sorry for my team but neverthless Real only lost against a team that was much better.
