Former stars play to raise funds. Ronaldinho Gaúcho and Deco, as headliners, drew over five thousand people to the Restelo Stadium for a charity match aimed at raising funds to help Leiria recover from the damage caused by the storm. And they didn’t disappoint, especially in terms of passing.
The running isn’t as frequent anymore, but the vision and quality of the game continue to thrill the fans. The match, “Ronaldinho’s Friends versus Deco’s Friends,” ended 9-9 and also featured other former players such as Maicon, Sylvinho, Jorge Andrade, Bruno Alves, and Adrien. Among those still playing, Richarlison stood out, scoring three goals.
