I am following New Zealand - Brazil because there are two players from the Italian Serie A AC Milan forwards Alexandre Pato and Ronaldinho
                            
             Our Milanisti Pato and Ronaldinho are ROCKING!!!!!   Ronaldinho with 2 goals and Pato with one

                                   


Brazil is Brazil, this is a fact.  A rejuvenated Brazil was out today against New Zealand with the signature "made in AC Milan."  Not only the two Milan forwards Alexandre Pato and Ronaldinho are playing for Brazil, but they are also scoring and giving show to the delight of million of fans worldwide, especially from Milan fans.

I was glued to the TV and enjoying every moment.  The first goal was by Anderson in the 4th minute with an assist by Pato. 
Brazil 1 - 0 New Zealand

                        
      Sunday, August 10, 2008, 2008 Summer Olympics Beijings Men Football Group C - Pato, Ronaldinho, Hernanes all come to celebrate Brazil's goal.


Thirty minutes later, the magic moment with Brazil and AC Milan striker Alexandre Pato blasting New Zealand goalkeeper in the 34th minute. You bet I jumped from my seat and started doing the "cheer leading dance" for Pato! The Wonder Milan Boy scored and now he needs only 5 more goals as he said he wanted to score 6 goals i the Olympics.
Brazil 2 - 0 New Zealand                              

In the 55th minute, a glorious moment for Brazil when Captain Ronaldinho scores with a free kick. It was glorious because Ronaldinho did not score for Brazil in an official competition since almost a year. That's why this goal was so important for Ronaldinho and the joy of his teammates was obvious.
Brazil 3 - 0 New Zealand

By now it was "Pure SAMBA TIME" at the Shenyang Olympic Stadium!  Brazil was rocking, dominating the match and it was "Ronaldinho Show time."

Just imagine how the fans exploded of joy when in the 61st minute Ronaldinho converts a penalty giving Brazil their fourth goal!  You got the picture?  Hello, hello, Samba at his maximum with Ronaldinho and the one celebrating the most must have been AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti watching from Italy the hope of Milan's salvation with Pato and Ronaldinho!
Brazil 4 - 0 New Zealand

Cheer leading dance for Ronaldinho!!!  Go Ronaldinho, Go Ronaldinho, Go Ronaldinho!

Just to put the "icing on the cake," in the 90th minute, Sobis scored the 5th goal and concluded the night with a giant party at the Shenayang Stadium.
Brazil 5 - 0 New Zealand

Everybody can dance the Samba now because Brazil secures a spot in Group C to pass to the quarterfinals.  I am so happy with this victory and my Milan heart beats with Samba music celebrating Brazil's victory and cheering for our 2 Milanisti Pato and Ronaldinho.   Brazil, la la la la.

Forza Brazil
