Ballon d'Or to Ronaldinho

Eight years ago on this same day football's magician, Ronaldinho, won the award to the best player in the world. Having shined with both Barcelona and his national team he beat the great englishmen Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard having the majority of the votes from FIFA. He is one of the most loved players in the history of football for his 'magical' tricks and his radiant smile on every picture he is in. Although Brazil was a great dissapointment and was not even called to play in South Africa in 2010 he expects to be in a greater level for the World Cup in Brazil next year.
