On Tuesday, fans at the Parc des Princes were treated to a wonderful sight: Paris Saint-Germain’s famous combination of Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi exchanging a hug.
The team prepared a unique event called ‘Ronaldinho Night’ to salute the iconic Brazilian star ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League match between PSG and RB Leipzig. When the match was ready to start, Ronaldinho bumped into Messi, resulting in a beautiful hug between the two football legends.
Ronaldinho was a player contracted by PSG from 2001 to 2003 before moving to Barcelona. During his time with the Catalans, he experienced first-hand Messi’s meteoric development. Interestingly, it was Ronaldinho who assisted Messi’s first La Liga goal against Albacete in 2005.
A moving meeting between two great people.
