Fifteen years ago, and specifically on November 19, 2005, Real Madrid fans stood to greet the Brazilian star Ronaldinho, after his brilliant performance in the Spanish soccer Clásico, which ended with the royal club's 3-0 loss to Barcelona.
Ronaldinho was the champion of the El Clásico evening, scoring two goals and presenting paintings that terrified Real Madrid's defense, who could not withstand the magic of the Brazilian star.
Barcelona's Twitter account regained that memory, and posted a clip highlighting Real Madrid fans standing in greeting Ronaldinho after scoring his second goal, which culminated in the player's dazzling performance in the match, in a snapshot that is not repeated often in football stadiums.
