The company created a combination of the two stars, combining the best qualities of each
Betfair brought together superstars Ronaldo and Rivaldo in a fun fusion, creating the ideal combination for a Brazilian national team player with the best qualities of each.
The five-time champions joined in the fun to create “Rinaldo” and imagine its characteristics. “A quality of Ronaldo’s that was super positive for me is his face to face with the goalkeeper, he had enormous skill. His pedaling in front of the goalkeeper, to dribble and score the goal is a demonstration of his coolness. He had an ease huge, so no matter who the goalkeeper is”, says Rivaldo.
“I have no doubt that Rivaldo’s left-handedness was missing from my CV. My left-handedness was good, but like Rivaldo it didn’t exist. Always that left-handed shot from outside the area. And it doesn’t just stop at that: the movement on the field, the strength that he had, with long strides and the game vision of a true number ten, who is there at the back and visualizes the whole thing. Rivaldo paced the match and saw the plays, with the ability to lead the game with the ball at his feet being perfect. He was a true playmaker and, with his left foot, he was different as a player”, highlights Ronaldo.
