"Overnight, we didn't know what to do, the backbone of the family was gone and the future was out of sight. That's when my brother was the one who scolded me and woke me up, saying that it was my responsibility to make the family's life better."
At this point, Ronaldinho aspired to follow in the successful footsteps of his older brother, Robert Assis, who starred for Gremio in the Porto Alegre region and had managed to make the Brazilian national team. Growing up overnight, Junior has completely changed his temperament. He no longer showed off his footwork by being smart, he had a sense of crisis to practice every part of his skill. When Junior entered the Brazilian national team and scored his first goal, he celebrated by pointing his finger to the sky and looking up for a long time, as if he wanted to tell his father's spirit in heaven: your dream has finally come true. Since then, every time Luo scored a goal and then pointed to the sky, that is to say he wants to dedicate the goal to his father.
Fame at first sight

Because of an ongoing dispute between the two clubs over the transfer fee, Ronaldinho waited five months before making his official European debut, but Gremio received only $4.5 million for his services.
Unlike many of Brazil's most famous internationals, who began their careers in Europe's lower or minor leagues, Junior has played for only three teams to date - Gremio, Paris St. Germain and Barcelona. Already compared to Pele at Gremio, Junior joined one of the top five leagues, Ligue 1 rival Paris Saint-Germain, in 2001, and quickly became a fan favorite in Paris, where the mayor of the city, Edouard Delano?t, even presented him with the City Medal in person.

With England's game, Ronaldinho first assisted Rivaldo to equalize the score, and then with a 35 meters away from the shocking hanging shot incredible breakthrough. Although he was shown a red card for a tackle on Mills seven minutes later, his brilliance was still hard to hide. And Brazil eventually went all the way to the gold cup.
After returning to Ligue 1 from the World Cup, despite occasional fine performances and eight goals, relations with club boss Luis Fernandez began to deteriorate, and after failing to qualify for the UEFA Champions League, Ronaldinho was tempted to leave. His brother Robert Assis, his agent, began to approach Premier League giants Manchester United, while La Liga giants Barcelona, who were joined by new president Laporta, began to enter the fray.
On July 19, 2003, Junior joined Barcelona for $28 million. When Laporta accompanied him to the stadium, about 30,000 fans in the stands cheered the long-admired idol, and the jerseys rushed out that day with Junior's name on them sold out. Subsequently, the Brazilian began to make his mark in this fertile soccer ground, and his arrival at the ailing Barcelona breathed new life into the team.

Junior doesn't listen to music for pure enjoyment; according to him, he looks for goal-scoring inspiration in music. People will find that, whether on or off the field, the most customary action is to raise his thumb and little finger, making a "six" gesture, which once triggered widespread speculation among fans. In fact, the meaning of this gesture is very simple, in Brazil is to express "Hello!
Whenever Xiao Luo makes such a gesture, it shows that he wants to pass the happiness to everyone.

On his 10th birthday, he received his first pair of soccer shoes from his mother. But Miguelina didn't tell her son at the time that in order to buy these shoes, she washed dirty clothes for patients in the hospital for a whole extra half month. She also took on a lot of manual labor, often working through the night to pin buttons on dozens of dresses. Now that the pain is over, Xiao Luo's gratitude to her mother is hard to express. After every award, Lo is the first to thank her mother. This year, Miguelina has accompanied her son to three important award ceremonies.

When I was young all I wanted was for my sons to live with dignity and not go hungry. He grew up wanting to be a ball player and he ended up realizing his dream. Now close your eyes and think about it, the days go by too fast ......"
Letting her mother "transfer" to Europe to protect her family is the biggest responsibility
Since Junior joined Barcelona, Miguelina has been living a Barcelona and Brazil Happy Harbor life. Now, Junior has arranged for his mother to settle in Barcelona. This was done not in the hope that her mother would make meatloaf for him every day, but because of the constant death threats her mother receives in Brazil. Some time ago, the crime of kidnapping players' families became popular in Brazil. The families of Robinho, Luizan, Romario and Ronaldo have all been successively targeted for kidnapping by criminals. "Protecting my family is my biggest responsibility outside of playing soccer." Junior said, "There is little security in Brazil and I would be very worried about my mother there." Miguelina is not averse to life in Barcelona, and being able to see her son from time to time gives her great satisfaction. With his mother by his side, Junior put his mind more on the field. He has never been anything but obedient to his mother, and interestingly enough, even his salary Junior would hand over as much as he could. "My money has always been kept by my mom." In an interview with the media, Junior showed his big teeth and said with a smile and not a little pride.
Childhood memories of touching older siblings "around" him

Xiao Luo 7 years old followed his brother to the Gremio team, at that time, Xiao Luo never missed any of his brother's game, Robert has always been the idol of his heart. After his father passed away, Robert took on the burden of the family and supervised Junior's daily training. "My brother always bought me what I wanted." Junior is still touched by the memories of the old days. Today, Robert, who is a soccer economist, is the newest up-and-comer in Brazil's brokerage world. He is not only the agent of Junior, as long as it is related to soccer, he is involved in the matter. 2003 July, Junior to 30 million euros to Barcelona, the deal is the key to the revival of Barcelona, Robert played a pivotal role.

In addition, the life of Robert also on the small Luo strict "control". "Yes, I often interfere in my brother's business. Do not let him casually drink, contact with alcohol, do not let those women close to him. I had to be responsible for everything he did. My brother is a soccer prodigy but inexperienced when it comes to life and I have to protect him." Junior's sister, Daisy, now has a job that similarly revolves around Junior. She takes care of all of Junior's appointments and even press conferences for advertising partnerships. Daisy said, "Junior is not very fond of these media events, and his social and public life is very limited. He prefers to be at home playing games, listening to music, watching games, or going out with friends and family."

Brazil's star-studded team of Ronaldo, Denilson, Adriano and Kaka ...... However, it's in this kind of team that Junior has grown into the absolute core of the new generation. Head coach Pereira is even going to appoint him as the seventh captain of the Brazilian team. In the Confederations Cup, help Brazil to the top of the small Luo impressed the always harsh Pereira: "He is loved by his teammates, but also a model of professional players, let him take the captaincy is a good choice."
Lampard: He's the best
When Luo held the gold medal in his hand and revealed his trademark smile, Lampard could only send out the helpless feeling of "both Xiao Luo, why Lampard".
Lampard has been playing very consistently over the past year: helping the Blues win the English top flight title after a 50-year absence and becoming the team's top scorer in the 2004-2005 season. Not long ago, the Premier League iron man also set a record of 160 consecutive starts in the English top flight. However, in the selection of the European Ballon d'Or, the main midfielder of the England national team was 77 points behind Junior and did not have a chance to win the award. By the time it came to the International Footballer of the Year, Lampard was still in second place and had received only a third of the votes of Junior. "I'm not disappointed at all. In my mind, he (Junior) is the best player in world football today, the most watchable player." Lampard said.
In his first season in La Liga, Ronaldinho contributed 22 goals for Barca in all competitions, including 14 league goals, while the second half of the league season produced a 17-game unbeaten run as the Catalan giants finally awoke from a four-year slumber. In addition to Ronaldinho's unique psychedelic crossing, he can use free kicks, hooks and other ways to break the goal, the opponent's defense in front of him looks quite fragile, Ronaldinho not only for Barcelona to bring victory, but also more fans to bring extraordinary enjoyment.
In August 2004, Ronaldinho scored a hat-trick in Brazil's 6-0 win over Haiti. He has scored 13 goals in 34 appearances for Brazil so far. The new season of Barcelona after the introduction of players such as Deco, Eto'o, Edmilson and Belletti for Ronaldinho to provide a better interpretation of space. 2004 November, Barcelona in the Camp Nou 2-1 victory over the Serie A giants AC Milan, Ronaldinho with a dazzling false swing to make Nesta at a loss, the Brazilian followed by a powerful shot to bring victory for the Barcelona, which made the whole crowd of 90,000 fans suddenly boiled. 3 years, the Brazilian team has been the first to win the game, but the Brazilian team is not the first to win. Three weeks later, Ronaldinho led Barcelona to a 3-0 victory over La Liga rivals Real Madrid.
Ronaldinho's ability to combine vision, great passes and deceptive breakaways with all manner of shots on goal was a perfect combination. And the important thing is that he fights with a smile on his face in almost any game, and his relaxed attitude towards life also infects his teammates in the Barcelona camp at the same time, and they can always kill their opponents in a loose atmosphere. Barcelona captain Puyol said: "Ronaldinho's ability is not only to win the game, after leaving the field he also brings us important value, he always maintains a high mood, because he always has a good mood."
Some people say that in Barcelona, Xiao Luo like big Luo like shooting goals, like Zidane like crossing the organization, Beckham like stealing long passes, Fei Ge like deep breakthroughs, he a person to complete the work of the four heavenly kings of Real Madrid. This is the Brazilian genius Xiao Luo, he deserves the name of Mr. World Football.
With the gradual maturation of Junior, his infectious power has gradually affected the whole team. His teeth-baring grin became a favorite avatar of Barcelona fans, and his celebratory gesture of sticking out his thumb and pinky finger was imitated by the fans, and his optimism infected every teammate and every fan. 2005 Confederations Cup, Junior really became the core of the Brazilian team, and he helped Brazil win the Confederations Cup together with Adriano and Kaka. If the honor of World Footballer of the Year in 2004 could not be considered a crowd-pleaser, a new milestone was undoubtedly crossed when, at the end of 2005, Junior, with all the accolades of the year, was re-elected as the World Footballer of the Year with a high number of votes.
The World Cup in '06, Luo did not lead the team to go very far, won the Hercules Cup, which may be related to the team's big players, Luo back heavy pressure.
Back to Barcelona, Luo's state is not very good, the league is not smooth sailing, but the fans still support and understand him.
The media about Luo's negative news more and more, other media also frequently rumors to Barcelona to sell Luo's news. Xiaoluo is not the absolute main force, so Xiaoluo began to lose weight, after the devil training, we finally saw the shadow of the original Xiaoluo in the 200th game he played for Barcelona. Although not a starter, but the small Luo on the field accompanied by the fans warm applause and cheers, we look forward to the return of the "king of the ball" small Luo.
After the 06-07 season of the sinking, Barcelona has been no longer regarded as the core of the team Luo, after the boisterous transfer news, Luo in 2008 Italy local time on July 15 to 20 million euros in transfer fees to join his team AC Milan, wearing the No. 80 jersey, we hope that also believe that Luo can be a season of the sinking, to get back up and become a member of the AC Milan, we hope and believe that the team will be able to make the return of the "king of the ball". After a season of decline, we hope and believe that Junior will be able to get back on his feet and become a new generation of AC Milan's core players. We hope that his magnificent skills will blossom again in the San Rossi Stadium.
