el retorno del fenomeno...

nothing too big on his first appearance but he did do something.
from looking at him play, you can tell he has played at a different level within the realm of futebol. his first touch showed just how quickly he can switch the game's direction and make the opposite team shake in fear. it was nice to see him play and even better to see my host brothers get excited about it.

just to clarify - after more than a year of not playing soccer, after being called fat by his own president, and after his third knee injury...Ronaldo Luiz Nazario de Lima, also known as 'fenomeno' in Brazil, played his first couple of minutes on the team that i am supporting... Corinthians. you can imagine how happy people are here.



...i wouldn't be surprised if he does great things for the team but i don't think so much pressure can be good for him. only time will tell and let's hope it brings our team up.



who would have thought that the kid in the blue and white uniform would become the player he is now... i mean look at him hehe
