Catalonia XI 1 Brazil 3

First Published: May 19, 2002

Ronaldinho scored twice in front of a big Camp Nou crowd to defeat a Catalonia XI in Barcelona.

The PSG star curled in a free kick on 20 minutes and then beat defender Miguel Angel to win the ball and hit a neat chip on the run in the 44th minute as he took attention away from a laboured performance by Ronaldo on arare return to the stadium he graced as a Barca star.

Centre back Edmilson added a third from close range in the 75th minute after his defence had conceded a headed goal to Luis Garcia.
