Ronaldinho is one of the most famous stars in Brazil. He has excellent ball control skills and is good at breaking through quickly in the middle. His playing style is similar to Ronaldo. His name, Ronaldinho, means little in Portuguese. Ronaldo.
Grown up overnight
Ronaldinho was born on March 21, 1980 in Porto Allegre, a small town in Brazil, into a family with a strong football tradition. . Ronaldinho's full name is Ronaldo Assis de Moreira. He has an older brother and an older sister. When I was a child, my family was not considered wealthy. My father died young and my mother shouldered the burden of the family's life. Ronaldinho's family has an unusual passion for football. His father was a football player, his mother was a fan, and his brother was also a football player. Under the influence of his family, Ronaldinho began to play football at a young age, and he even played football with his pet dog. Ronaldinho said: "On Sunday, my mother took the family lunch she made and went to the stadium to enjoy football with us. When I was a child, I always felt that I was a happy child."
Happy memories, in Ronaldinho came to an abrupt end when he was 8 years old. That year, Ronaldinho's family moved into a house with a swimming pool. One day, my father died of a heart attack in the swimming pool. "Overnight, we didn't know what to do. The backbone of the family was gone, and the future was invisible. At this time, my brother woke me up by scolding me. He said that I had the responsibility to make life at home better."
At this time, Ronaldinho yearned to follow in the footsteps of his brother Robert Assis and achieve success. The latter played the main role at Gremio in the Porto-Allegre region and was successfully selected for the Brazilian national team. Ronaldinho, who grew up overnight, completely changed his temper. He no longer relied on his cleverness to show off his skills. He had a sense of crisis that he had to master every skill. When Ronaldinho entered the Brazilian national team and scored his first goal, his celebration was to point his fingers to the sky and look up for a long time, as if to tell his father's spirit in heaven: Your dream has finally come true. Since then, every time Ronaldinho points to the sky after scoring a goal, it means that he wants to dedicate the goal to his father.
Fame in one fight
Ronaldinho stood out at a very young age. Just like the growth process of many Brazilian internationals, Ronaldinho's happiest life every day is to go to the football field to play, and going from the slum houses in the slums to the stadium is Ronaldinho's most frequent route. The 1997 World Junior Championship held in Egypt became the stage for Ronaldinho to shine. Ronaldinho's name appeared in the newspaper headlines. He first showed his skills in that cup, and they won 2-1 in the final. Defeated Ghana.
Ronaldinho, who scored the first 7 goals in this cup, was named the best player and became the top scorer of the championship team. This was the first best in his football career. For a time, his name was As everyone knows, this success opened a new chapter in Ronaldinho's career. After Ronaldo, Ronaldinho is hailed as another Brazilian star who stands out. Ronaldinho recalled: "This honor made me more confident and opened the door to the world's top football clubs."
But what really impressed fans around the world was Ronaldinho's performance in the 2002 World Cup. Ronaldinho became famous in the quarter-finals against England. He first broke down England's defense with a long-distance run and assisted Rivaldo to score the equalizing goal. Then he took a free kick with a weird arc, teasing the opponent's goalkeeper Seaman. Afterwards, Ronaldinho became the hottest signing target for Europe's top giants.
One step to the top
In 1998, Ronaldinho signed the first contract of his career with the local Gremio, and he took the first step towards success. He quickly earned a spot in the national team. On June 26, 1999, Ronaldinho represented Brazil against Lithuania. This was his debut for the national team, and his first national team goal was also not far away in the game against Paraguay. In 1999, he scored 6 goals to help Brazil win the Copa America and became the top scorer in the FIFA Confederations Cup with 6 goals.
Frequently eye-catching performances in international competitions have attracted the attention of many European giants, and Ronaldinho's cute "buck teeth" have become his unforgettable personal feature. In March 2001, Ronaldinho moved to French Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain and signed a five-year contract. Because the two clubs had been in dispute over the transfer fee, Ronaldinho waited for five months. Only officially debuted in Europe, but Gremio only received a transfer fee of US$4.5 million.
Unlike many well-known Brazilian international players who started working in low-level or minor leagues in Europe, Ronaldinho has only played for three teams: Gremio, Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona. He was already compared to Pele when he was at Gremio. Ronaldinho landed in Europe in 2001 and joined one of the five major leagues, Ligue 1 powerhouse Paris Saint-Germain, and quickly became a favorite among Paris fans. The mayor of Paris, Delanoe, even personally awarded him the City Medal.
Ronaldinho's more than two years in Paris were not considered successful, scoring only 13 goals in more than 50 games, but he still shined in international competitions. The Brazilian team stumbled through the South American qualifiers of the 2002 World Cup, but has maintained a high level of competitiveness since entering the World Cup finals in Japan and South Korea. Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, and Ronaldo formed the strongest offensive trident. In the match against England, Ronaldinho first assisted Rivaldo to equalize the score, and then scored an incredible goal with a shocking lob from 35 meters away. Although Mills was sent off for a flying tackle 7 minutes later, his brilliance was still hard to cover up. And Brazil finally passed all the way and won the Gold Cup.
After returning to Ligue 1 from the World Cup, although he occasionally performed well and scored 8 goals, his relationship with the club coach Luis Fernandez began to deteriorate, and after failing to win the European After qualifying for the Champions League, Ronaldinho thought about leaving. His brother Robert Assis began to contact Premier League giants Manchester United as his agent, and La Liga giants Barcelona also began to join the competition after new chairman Joan Laporta took over.
On July 19, 2003, Ronaldinho joined Barcelona for a worth of US$28 million. When Laporta accompanied him to the stadium, about 30,000 fans cheered for their long-admired idol in the stands. The jerseys with Ronaldinho's name printed on them that were rushed out that day were sold out. Subsequently, Ronaldinho took advantage of Europe's top giants, and the Brazilian began to show his strength in this fertile soil of football. His arrival also injected new vitality into the ailing Barcelona.
In the match against Sevilla, Ronaldinho dribbled the ball from the backcourt until he shot 25 meters in front of the goal. This was his debut in La Liga. Ronaldinho scored a hat-trick in the 8-0 UEFA Cup victory over Slovakia Puchov. That season, he helped Barcelona win the league championship. In the second season, Barcelona is still comfortably leading the standings and easily qualified for the Champions League.
One person dominates
In December 2003, Ronaldinho was invited to participate in FIFA's centenary ceremony. For the first time, he gathered together with many world football celebrities. In 2004, Ronaldinho defeated Henry and Shevchenko and won the 2004 World Footballer selected by FIFA. Ronaldinho also became the fourth World Footballer to come out of Barcelona after Maradona, Ronaldo and Rivaldo. This year can be regarded as a veritable "Year of Ronaldinho". In the field of football, he dominated the Ballon d'Or and World Footballer, completing the "Grand Slam" of personal honors. What's rare is that Ronaldinho is only 25 years old, and his glorious era has just begun.
A living treasure
On the football field, people always see a grinning Ronaldinho. Happiness seems to have become his label. Off the court, Ronaldinho is a live treasure in the team. He never misses an opportunity to joke with his teammates. He loves to play, laugh and make trouble, and he brings happiness wherever he goes.
Ronaldinho is also a person who loves music. Brazilian samba music and black music from the 1970s are his favorite types of music. Ronaldinho does not listen to music purely for appreciation. According to him, he finds inspiration for scoring goals in music. People will find that Ronaldinho's most accustomed action, whether on or off the court, is to raise his thumb and little finger and make a "six" gesture, which once triggered widespread speculation among fans. In fact, the meaning of this gesture is very simple. In Brazil, it means "Hello!". Every time Ronaldinho makes such an action, it shows that he hopes to pass happiness to everyone.
Ronaldo’s family affection is endless
When Ronaldinho received awards one after another, in his eyes, what shone brightly was not the dazzling trophies, but the warm gazes of his family. This gaze is deeper and longer than the golden cup. Ronaldinho never forgets to share every honor with his family. In his heart, his family will always be his motivation to move forward and the guarantee of success.
After half a month of washing clothes, his mother gave him his first pair of sneakers
Ronaldinho’s mother, Migelina, is an out-and-out football fan. When she was young, she was attracted by Ronaldinho's father's demeanor on the court, so she had Ronaldinho. Nowadays, Migelina does not fall behind Ronaldinho in every game. The premature death of Ronaldinho's father put pressure on Migelina. However, she bravely shouldered the burden of life and tried her best to satisfy her children's wishes. On Ronaldinho's 10th birthday, he got his first pair of football boots from his mother. But Migelina did not tell her son at the time that in order to buy this pair of shoes, she had to wash the patients' dirty clothes in the hospital for half a month. She also took on a lot of manual work, often buttoning dozens of clothes overnight. Now that all the hardships have come to an end, Ronaldinho's gratitude to his mother is beyond words. After every award, Ronaldinho is the first to thank her mother. This year, Migelina has accompanied her son to three important award ceremonies. Talking about Ronaldinho's achievements, the excited Migelina felt like she was in another world. She said: "I can't describe my feelings at all. I never thought that God would give me so much. When I was young, I just wanted my sons to live with dignity and not go hungry. He wanted to be a football star since he was a child. As a result, he realized his dream. Now I close my eyes and think about it, life flies too fast..."
It is the greatest responsibility for my mother to "move" to Europe to protect her family
Since childhood, After Luo joined Barcelona, ??Migelina has been living a life of running between Barcelona and Happy Port, Brazil. Now, Ronaldinho has arranged for his mother to settle in Barcelona. He did this not because he wanted his mother to make meatloaf for him every day, but because her mother was constantly receiving death threats in Brazil. Some time ago, the crime of kidnapping players’ families became common in Brazil.
The families of Robinho, Luisan, Romario and Ronaldo have all become targets of kidnapping by criminals. "Protecting my family is my biggest responsibility outside of playing football." Ronaldinho said, "There is almost no security in Brazil. I will be very worried about my mother there." Migelina is not disgusted with life in Barcelona and can always She was very satisfied to see her son frequently. With his mother by his side, Ronaldinho focused more on the court. He always obeyed his mother's words. Interestingly, Ronaldinho even handed over his salary in full. "My money has always been kept by my mother." When interviewed by the media, Ronaldinho bared his teeth and said with a smile and pride.
The touching childhood memories of his brothers and sisters "circling" him
Many wealthy families in Europe are coveting Ronaldinho. But they all know that if they want to get Ronaldinho, they must first obtain the consent of Ronaldinho's agent Robert Assis. Robert is none other than Ronaldinho's biological brother. Ronaldinho followed his brother to the Gremio team when he was 7 years old. At that time, Ronaldinho never missed any of his brother's games. Roberto has always been his idol. After his father's death, Robert took on the responsibility of the family and supervised Ronaldinho's daily training. "My brother always buys me what I want." Ronaldinho was still moved when he recalled the past. Today, as a football manager, Robert is already a rising star in Brazil’s agency industry. And he is not only Ronaldinho's agent, he is involved in everything related to football. In July 2003, Ronaldinho transferred to Barcelona for a sky-high price of 30 million euros. This transaction was a key move in Barcelona's revival, and Robert played a decisive role in it.
The savvy Robert is well aware of Ronaldinho's value. This season he has been negotiating between several major clubs and Barcelona to negotiate for Ronaldinho's new contract. In addition, Robert also strictly "controlled" Ronaldinho in life. "Yes, I often interfere in my brother's affairs. I don't let him drink or be exposed to alcohol, and I don't let those unscrupulous women get close to him. I must be responsible for everything about him. My brother is a football genius, But I have no experience in life, so I want to protect him." Ronaldinho's sister Daisy's current job also revolves around Ronaldinho. She is responsible for all Ronaldinho's appointments and even press conferences for advertising cooperation. Daisy said: "Ronaldo is not very fond of these media activities, and his social and public life is very limited. He prefers to play games at home, listen to music, watch games, or go out with family and friends."
Ronaldinho created an era
Ronaldinho is by no means a flashy performer, he is a master who perfectly combines artistic football and practical football. Winning three individual awards in one year: FIFA's "World Player of the Year", "France Football's" Ballon d'Or, and World Professional Footballers' Federation's "World's Best Player" may be just the beginning of this 25-year-old young man's glory.

Letting him serve as captain is a good choice."
Lampard: He is the best
When Ronaldinho held the gold medal and showed his iconic smile, Lampard could only say, "If Ronaldinho is born, why should Ronaldinho be born?" Pade" sighs of helplessness. Lampard has maintained an extremely stable performance in the past year: helping the Blues win the English top league championship after 50 years and becoming the team's top scorer in the 2004-2005 season. Not long ago, the Premier League hero also set a record of 160 consecutive starts in England's top league. However, in the selection of the European Ballon d'Or, the main midfielder of the England national team missed out on this award with a huge disadvantage of 77 points behind Ronaldinho. When it came to the International Footballer selection, Lampard was still ranked second, and only received one-third of Ronaldinho's votes. "I'm not disappointed at all. In my mind, he (Ronaldo) is the best player in world football today and the most entertaining player," Lampard said.
