And here he is, the man. Can we say the man of the hour? I think men or former rivals come together.
Let's have a look at the line-up then for Real Madrid, starting...
You know, couldn't sign for one of the top teams somewhere. Real Madrid.
Absolutely.
Not too many household names, however.
Starting 11.
To still see him perform is, like I just said, it's an absolute, you know, it's a treasure.
And the passion with which these types of games are lived.
That was an early shot. I think that was Fernando Sanz.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
There are plenty of cheers there. You're not wrong, Diego.
He finds a takeoff.
Here's Ronaldinho inside the penalty area. What can he do here?
He sets up. Well, didn't quite get a clean shot on that, Mendieta.
But it was a good attack for Barca. Possibly one of the biggest attacks we've seen so far in the match.
Yeah, the first...
To Ivan Campo.
Ronaldinho, though, from distance.
And he stretched Jordi Colina there.
Just fancied his chances on that one. That was cheeky, I didn't know it.
Didn't he know it.
No hesitation, though.
Not at all.
He knew he had to pull that trigger.
Seeing the keeper off his line like that, there's only one thing in Ronaldinho's mind in this kind of situation.
He wasn't far off.
Exactly.
He wasn't far off at all.
Of course, somewhat more of a symbolic match, these exhibition games.
Where really what the fans want is to see their idols, or what were once idols, in action.
And hopefully get to see one of those beautiful free kicks.
Well, cheeky backheel there then.
Here's Rivaldo, on the edge of the area.
He's slipped, but Ronaldinho, on the edge of the area with the ball.
And he puts it over, unfortunately.
It was Saviola, though, with that little backheel that kind of set up that play.
He should be quite pleased with that.
That was beautiful.
To the 39-year-old.
Oh, look at that.
Keeping the ball in play for the...
Years ago, so by all means, if he needs to sit out, then of course he has to.
But Casillas was one of those players from...
What a time to arrive at the club as well.
I mean, you wrote this history with this club right at the right moment as well.
When we were just in dire need.
And this is a nice attack.
And it came off the crossbar.
I thought that was going to be the first goal of the match from Ronaldinho himself.
But look at that.
The eternal smile.
Thumbs up for the fans.
And you can hear them from the stands how much they enjoyed that.
From the number 10.
I mean, yeah, just to add on to that history.
That Ronaldinho wrote.
As one of the overage players for Brazil.
Another former Barca player.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, I'm going to cut you off here because this is a great opportunity for Barca.
Saviola goes down.
It's a penalty for Barca.
We said before it's an exhibition match.
Maybe we won't see that tightly contested.
But a penalty has been given.
And a yellow card.
And that's cleanly expected anything less.
This 30,000 capacity Bloomfield Stadium has absolutely erupted.
Ronaldinho makes it 1-0 for FC Barcelona.
In a beautifully, beautifully played penalty.
Still has that touch, Jamie.
That was a good penalty.
It was a beautiful penalty.
Ronaldinho saluting his fans.
25 years ago in some cases.
Well, Ronaldinho got away with it.
You can never get angry at that smile.
Absolutely not.
Someone saying something similar about Manchester United.
Listen, Manchester United is up there in the top three teams.
Or most followed and supported team around the world.
My question is.
Does it evoke the similar types of emotions.
In the dying seconds.
Or minutes rather of the game.
When I think it was Ronald de Boer.
I think it was Ronald de Boer or Frank de Boer.
One of the de Boer brothers.
That just chipped that ball over two defensive lines.
From what appeared to be close to the mid.
It was invaded.
The last time that I remember seeing the Camino pitch invaded as well.
Mind you.
Players were hoisted up and carried around on their shoulders.
But these heroes arise.
Ronaldinho and the Rivaldos.
That's a powerful shot from distance.
Passo Casanovisca.
Yes, it is.
Should have done better with that.
From close range into an open goal.
Yes.
It looks like Luis Figo could be taking it.
And he's not.
Roberto comes on.
What a stop.
By Jesus Angoy.
Well, you see.
These players are the kind of players that I like at least.
I'm happy that we didn't see any player laying on the floor.
Luis Figo.
Showing us just a little bit of flair.
That's a nice tackle by Tortolero.
And it's really better now.
What do they call it?
European American Football League?
I'm not sure of the name of the league.
But, yes, I remember those days when you had the Barcelona Dragons.
Amsterdam Admirals.
Nice pass by Ronaldinho.
Trying to pick up Saviola.
Nice to keep the ball in play.
He's handling five defenders.
He's crossing it in.
25 years from now.
Maybe we'll see Pedric playing in a Legends match.
That's a good shot.
Angoy.
Solid between the posts here today.
Good shot, but better save, yeah.
Look at Angoy.
Goalkeeping.
He's a 55-year-old.
They're making it work.
Real Madrid are definitely having...
Barcelona under pressure here early on.
Benitez comes on.
And what an impact he's had.
Just one minute and 20 seconds into this second.
Cheers and smiles all around for Real Madrid.
Ronaldo Boyo.
Can't...
Benitez, who's fired up now.
He's wanting to double it over.
And it goes to one.
Real Madrid, less than four minutes into this second half.
Not only have they pulled level, they've taken the lead.
2-1 then to Real Madrid after that fantastic goal by Alfonso Pérez
with a cross from Benitez.
Benitez, well, through illness.
He was part of Spain's squad in the...
In last season's pre-season,
as a yellow card had quickly been handed out.
Yeah.
Well, it looked like play was...
Where the player will put on the entire Barça kit
for the very first time before he will take the pitch
as the first time as Barça.
It was one of the penalty shoot-outs that will go down in history.
I think I suffered referee defending.
Looks solid to me, Jamie.
Although it looks like we may be stopped because...
Yeah, I'm not sure.
Well, I am sure.
I'm not...
Early upset and look more composed now.
Having 50 minutes of...
Under their belt.
No doubt all the players would be excited at that prospect.
That's a great shot.
Finally, Barcelona pull it even.
That's good.
Is that Joffre Matu?
I was going to say, from a distance there,
that looked like Lionel Messi.
Right?
It was Joffre.
He's getting a picture with Barça TV zone.
Aviv, there.
Over in Beirut, also ended up with a Barça victory.
So, let's hope that Barça can...
Started over in Israel
and will be there from the remaining month of July
all the way through...
That is right.
That is a fact.
There are some fantastic ones here in Barcelona.
There are really good ones.
There are great ones.
It doesn't surprise me perhaps that...
Here's De la Red who we've seen as a danger from this area.
It's a shot goal.
Lovely bit of skill.
I told you it was coming.
Ruben De la Red
makes it 3-2 to Real Madrid.
He celebrates with Alex Pérez.
I told you he was a threat, Diego.
And we've seen a powerful putt on him from the edge of the area.
And we did.
Lovely bit of skill there by Ruben De la Red.
The way he just managed to flick that ball on.
I wanted to ask about Florentino Pérez and what he had to say about you.
What a surprise.
Monza Pérez with the attack now.
What can they do with this here?
No shortage of players.
Here's Ronaldinho.
In we see some magic late on.
Worthy of the number 10 shirt.
Yes.
Ronaldinho takes it.
It comes off the wing.
He's calling for a full time.
Absolutely.
I have to admit, Diego.
Hard as it is.
Real Madrid came out, I think, the strongest side in this second half.
Although we've seen some good goals all round.
Four top quality goals.
