YOKOHAMA, Japan - Ronaldo, the flop of the 1998 World Cup final, scored two goals to steer Brazil to a record fifth world title with a 2-0 win over Germany on Sunday.
His deadly marksmanship also earned him a place alongside Pele in the history of the finals.

After failing to live up to expectations in Brazil's 3-0 defeat by France four years ago, Ronaldo gave a master class in poaching goals on a humid Japanese night in front of an estimated worldwide television audience of 1.5 billion people.

As one of the few, if not the only, person on this board to see Ronaldo play in person, both in America and Brazil, I commend the Brazilian team for their stunning play this year :hi:
