Right either that took about a million takes or it's faked...sorry but there's just no way that even the best player in the world can hit the crossbar from that range and judge it so perfectly to come back to him (not even a centimetre out!).

Why does the camera zoom out when he's kicking the ball to hit the crossbar?

I'm sure that it's faked in some way.

If Ronaldinho could place his shots with that accuracy then he would score pretty much everytime he shot.

Understatement of the Century!

:lol:

Watching it over a few more times I have to say that I am starting to think that it could be genuine although I reckon it would've taken a lot of attempts and might have benefited from some cunning editing.

I had a mate at school who could hit the cross bar on request time and time again. He was far too lazy during any proper games and even played in defence but man the guy had talent - just didn't know how to use it!!!

Although I haven't seen the clip I think it is possible. In a match you have so much more pressure both physically and mentally which would stop you from scoring awesome goals - but in training what is there to stop you - and ROnaldinho is by far the best player in the world he he

Best used to line up and hit the cross bar 10 times in a row before he would go in for the evening.

I'm not sure that's exactly what he meant when he told his team mates he was staying behind to hit the bar...

lol :lol:

toby you have remember he's a one of the best at the game at the present time. It would take some time to do it three times but it is possible, also he isn't too far away.

One thing to say it isn't rigged is the guys in the background having a kickabout.

So that the viewer can see him hitting the crossbar, in one screen?!!

Looks just like a Nike Comercial to me , he changes his crappy black boots to his blinging white and gold boots and can do all these amazing tricks. A bit of camera trickery i think.

Im sorry Dubz, Looks like a fake to me, IF his shooting was that good he would end the season with 30/40 goals not 12 :lol:
He is without a doubt the best showman in the world at football. Wouldnt say best player, He simply doesnt score enuff goals for a forward.
