Ronaldo Scores His First Goal at Corinthians!

Palmeiras was winning the derby against Corinthians, in a huge mistake by keeper Felipe. Mano Menezes sent Ronaldo to the pitch with 18 minutes into the second-half. The forward tried a few dribbles, was fouled, and even hit the post in a shot from outside the box. It was already a great match for him. But with 1 minute into the stoppage time, this derby became part of history. Corinthians had a corner and Ronaldo scored in the way which we’re not that used to seeing. With a header. The collective explosion of joy was instantaneous. Ronaldo ran towards Corinthians’ fans and climbed the fence. The fans climbed the fence too and it almost collapsed. Globo TV commentators were having an orgasm live – rating audiences for the week are very promising after all! And with that the phenomenon is a little bit closer to the Ronaldo we would like to see. And today, even if a meteor hits the Earth, the main topic of the week on Brazilian press will be Ronaldo. Congrats Ronaldo!
