One Word Ronaldinho, That’s how the whole match can be described. Those in stadium today were hoping for a Piece of Samba magic from the Samba star, and that is exactly what they got as the Brazilian magician scored 5 yes u heard that right 5 goals as he lead Goa 5s from the front as they thrashed Bangaluru 5s by 7-2.
Former Barcelona legend opened the scoring as quick as 6th minute of the game as a corner from the left was laid off to him in the box, but he exquisitely side-stepped the diving goalkeeper and slotted into an empty net to give Goa the lead. Bangaluru soon hit back thanks to a brilliant solo goal from Maximiliano . Bangaluru took the lead early in the 2nd quarter as Jonathan Piers, a pass and slammed it home with his left foot.But their lead was short lived as Ronaldinho scored 2 quick goals to put Goa into the lead , First scoring with a bullet shot while being surrounded by 2 defenders and the 2nd one was a reflex 1st time shot into the corner to complete his Hat-trick.

Ronaldinho 4th goal came in the 32th minute as he lofted a cheeky ball up and over the defense into the back of the net,Marshall made it 5-2 moments later tapping the ball from a yard out after Vampeta’s shot from the right was parried into his path.Rafael volleyed home the 6th from a pass from Vampeta. Ronaldinho still had a time to entertain one and all even in the last-minute of the game as he made up for missing a penalty by scoring a brilliant counter attack game which was his 5th of the game and Goa’s 7th.
And as expected Twitter went crazy seeing the legend perform at his very best once again, here’s how they saluted the legend
