Original Ronaldo: The last hurrah


The final curtain fell on Ronaldo's professional career with his appearance for Brazil against Chile in a friendly game yesterday. He spent 15 mins on the pitch and received a standing ovation.

Although it's hard to watch the below video - which shows a rather portly Ronaldo jogging around the box and missing chances he used to put away in his sleep - it's good to remember that at his peak no player ever matched his combination of speed, power and skill.
