    Brazilians burn statue of Ronaldinho

    Brazilians burn statue of Ronaldinho

    Tuesday 04 July 2006, 10:35 Makka Time, 7:35 GMT

    Enraged Brazilian fans have burnt a seven meter tall statue of star Ronaldinho after the team was eliminated from the World Cup by France.

    The state which was made from resin and iron stood in the southern town of Chapeco in Santa Catarina was torched on Saturday night.

    "All that's left is a burnt out metal skeleton of a statue," a spokesperson said.

    The monument of the Barcelona player with a ball, was inaugurated two years ago to celebrate the player's first World Footballer of the Year award in 2004.

    Yeah I heard this today! Ronaldinho, Ronaldo and a few others are scared to go back home so they decided to head directly to their clubs

    Ronaldinho was awful at the World Cup. Ronaldo had a slow start but played well in the end. Kaka was invisible. Robinho was great as a sub.

    they were all poor, Kaka had a great first match but after taht fizzled away. The only Brazilian I was impressed with was Ze Roberto who had flashes of great play and Cafu who deserves some kind of Fitness award for still being able to run like that at his age.
