Adriano Imperador and Ronaldinho wore the Flamengo shirt, but at different times. However, last Friday (08), the duo shone in a festive match in Toronto, Canada. With an assist from the playmaker, Didico scored a beautiful goal in the friendly.
Ronaldinho drove through the middle, cut to the right, and slipped a through ball in behind for Adriano. Then, the Flamengo idol waited for the goalkeeper to come off his line and finished with class, calmly, before running off to celebrate. The hero of the club’s 2009 Brasileirão title “shined” R10’s boot during the celebration as a way of thanking him.
“This kind of reunion really makes me miss playing. Didico was and always will be our emperor. My brother Adriano Imperador is the real deal,” Ronaldinho wrote on Instagram, alongside a photo of the celebration with the former striker after their one-two play.
Besides Ronaldinho and Adriano, other former Flamengo players took part in the friendly, such as Diego Ribas, Kleberson, Aldair, and André Santos. On social media, Diego said he also scored a goal against a team of legends from the United States and Canada.
This Sunday (10), Adriano and Ronaldinho are expected to be supporting opposite sides. Flamengo, where Imperador came through the youth ranks, faces Grêmio, the club where Gaúcho took his first steps. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. Brasília time, in Porto Alegre.
The match, valid for the 15th round of the Brasileirão, will be broadcast on pay-per-view channel Premiere. However, the best and most red-and-black coverage is from Coluna do Fla, on the website, on social media, and on YouTube. So stay tuned to our pages.
