WC football | The Brazilian star could not hold back the tears when meeting Ronaldo. Then she taught him the pigeon dance

The round of 16 with Korea was entirely under their control. From the 7th minute thanks to Vinício Júnior, they were leading 1:0, in the 13th minute the returnee Neymar made his way from the penalty spot, about a quarter of an hour later Richarlison made it 3:0 with his third goal of the tournament and in the 36th minute midfielder West sealed the victory Hama Paquetá. At the end of the match, the Koreans managed to reduce the score to 1:4, but that was all.

The scorer of the third goal, Richarlison, was invited to talk to his great role model, Brazilian icon Ronaldo, after the match. The Tottenham striker was very emotional during the meeting. The footage even shows her wiping away tears of happiness. “I can’t even speak,” the emotional attacker blurted out.

Ronaldo amusedly replied that Richarlison would have to teach him the pigeon dance he always used to celebrate his goal. “You even got Tite moving,” said the two-time world champion. After Richarlison got emboldened, the two Brazilians really danced together.

“I am moved when I see him. He is my big idol, just like Neymar,” said the 25-year-old striker, adding that Ronaldo has been an inspiration to him since childhood. “Now it’s your turn. You inspire millions of Brazilians, millions of children in Brazil with your art, your goals, your joy, with which you play, spontaneity,” Ronaldo was full of praise.

“There are three games left. In the final, you will have my hairstyle from 2002,” said the Brazilian icon to his successor, referring to his iconic hairstyle, which Richarlison already had on his head once this year. The two Brazilians are also united by the fact that Richarlison wears the same number nine jersey as Ronaldo did years ago .

Ronaldo scored 62 goals in 99 matches for the national team, making him Brazil’s third all-time top scorer. Only Neymar and Pelé surpassed the former Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid or AC Milan player.
