Ronaldinho's Day Out In Kolkata
Brazilian football legend Ronaldinho’s day out in Kolkata was jam-packed with surprises, including launching Durga Puja pandals, trying his hand at cooking, and defeating a congressman to score a goal.
The football superstar is visiting the City of Joy for the first time, where football matches are frequently more popular than cricket matches. Football greats Lionel Messi, Pele, and Diego Maradona have all previously visited Kolkata.
The day before yesterday, the 2002 FIFA World Cup star arrived in Kolkata. At the airport, a sizable crowd had assembled to greet their favorite player. Minister Sujit Bose of West Bengal greeted Ronaldinho.
The 43-year-old football great was cheered wherever he went while wearing shorts, a baggy t-shirt, and his trademark cap.
He opened a football academy in Rajarhat, close to Kolkata, to begin the day. Young football players will be trained at the R10 Academy using a curriculum created by the football star.
Numerous children had gathered at the academy, and their patience paid off when Ronaldinho demonstrated his entrancing dribbling prowess that the crowd had only ever seen on television.
The Sreebhumi Sporting Club puja pandal in Lake Town, Kolkata, was Ronaldinho’s next trip. When he was received with a tilak on the forehead, he was in for a pleasant surprise. In addition to opening the pandal, he danced with his supporters while they held Brazilian flags. Not only that, though. The major organizer of the Sreebhumi Sporting Club puja and a sports lover, Bengal minister Bose, urged the football star to take a shot at a football net guarded by him.
