Real Madrid Legends vs Barcelona Legends: Ronaldinho throws back the years and successfully scores a goal
Ronaldinho rolled back the years when the Real Madrid Legends beat the Barcelona Legends 3-2 in a unique El Clasico at the Bloomfield Stadium in Tel Aviv on Tuesday night. Five goals and some silk football were shown that evening, when some legendary players from both sides participated in an exhibition match during the pre-season break.
Barcelona came close to taking the lead in the 20th minute, when Ronaldinhoβs shot cannoned off the crossbar. However, the Brazilian would go one better seven minutes later when he prepared to take a penalty following a challenge by NΓΊΓ±ez on Saviola.
It was Ronaldinho who converted from the spot to put the Catalans ahead, before strikes from Munitis and Alfonso in the space of two second-half minutes gave Real Madrid the lead. Jofre Mateu restored parity in the second half, before De la Red fired home a sublime effort to secure victory.
Barcelona drew themselves level in the 60th minute following a fine solo run from Jofre Mateu, before Madrid hit the winner 10 minutes later.
