Ronaldinho rolls back the years with crazy dribbling during Barcelona legends match

It's been more than a decade since Ronaldinho was at the height of his European footballing career, and eight years since he quit professional football. Despite this, his legacy lives on in football, even among a fresh crop of players who likely never witnessed him in his prime.

At the ripe old age of 43, after living it up in retirement for several years, Ronaldinho still finds time to show off his one-of-a-kind skills in charity games. Barcelona legends featured superstars like Rivaldo, Ludovic Giuly, and Javier Saviola in a recent match against Maccabi Haifa in Israel, but it was Ronaldinho who was the talk of the town.

All five of Barcelona's goals came in the second half, but the team still managed to come from behind and win (5-1). Ronaldinho put the away team ahead with a goal just before the hour mark, but his best performance was a breathtaking solo run that would have done him proud back in his playing days.

Maccabi Haifa's veteran players didn't present the toughest competition, but Ronaldinho still managed to show off his skills by dribbling past three defenders and charging into the box. With a little more time, he would have been able to complete the play with some superb footwork that would have rounded out Maccabi custodian Nir Davidovich.

Dinho is still better than all the Barca players in the current squad 😂
