Ronaldinho and Neymar have been two of the most famous Brazilian players of the last decade. The attackers could easily join Ronaldo, Rivaldo and some others as the best attackers that appeared from Brazil during the last years. If it wasn’t for Pelé, we may even discuss who would have been the best one in history from that country.

July 2011 was a month in which Dinho and Ney faced each other in an historical game that will always be remembered. Neymar was a wonder kid who was appearing in Santos FC, his former side, and that was capturing the attention of some of the best clubs in the world, just before FC Barcelona signed him.

Ronaldinho was the star of the Brazilian soccer, as he was just returned from Europe, where he played for Paris Saint-Germain, FC Barcelona and AC Milan. After many indiscipline problems, he left the Italian side on January 2011 and arrived to Flamengo, the club in which he played for a year and a half.

The game that took place in the last days of July ended 5-4 with a victory of Flamengo. Ronaldinho played an incredible match, scoring three goals, while Neymar scored two for Santos, one of which later won the FIFA goal of the year award. An incredible show from the two Brazilian idols that Dinho won.
