In Brazil, the iconic Maracana stadium re-opened amidst a flurry of goals as two sides packed with legendary stars who laced up their boots one more time for the celebration.

Ronaldo and Bebeto were the captains of both sides, although you’ll recognise a load of the famous names who were playing, like Djalminha and Renato, as well as Mateus, Bebto’s son who’s looking like a real talent in the Brazilian league.

The pick of the 13 goals scored is probably from the big man himself, Ronaldo, around the 3.30 mark, where he pulls off a brilliant elastico to go round his man and slot home.
