The guffawing magician. (picture taken from Reuters)
Well, i was watching the Uefa Champions League soccer game between Barcelona and Werder Bremen the other day and noticed another one of Ronaldinho's dazzling soccer tricks. It's what he calls an 'Espaldinha', a move where he flips the ball past the opposing player with his back and then follows this by performing a smooth back heel before sending a perfectly weighted cross-field pass to Giuly. He later went on to score a cheeky free kick which grazed the grass underneath the jumping wall of Werder Bremen. All this, in front of 95,000 plus fans in the Nou Camp. In my opinion, he is currently the best pro footballer playing for a club that can perform freestyle soccer tricks during matches. Pure Magic.
