Surely, every football fan is familiar with this tale by now; the story of how Ronaldinho came into the first spotlight following a 23-goal game.

The Brazilian maestro's skills had begun to blossom at the tender age of eight and it didn't take long for him to have his first brush with the media. In a game that finished 23-0, a 13-year-old Ronaldinho scored all the 23 goals against a local club.

Just a year later, he was already making headlines as a star performer in Brazil's successful U17 World Championship in Egypt. Followed by that, he also took his first step into professional football with a debut for Gremio's first team while fans witnessed the birth of another legend.
