Fans at the Parc des Princes witnessed a beautiful moment on Tuesday: a hug between Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi, former and current star of Paris Saint-Germain.
PSG organised a ‘Ronaldinho night’ around Tuesday’s Champions League match against RB Leipzig, a celebration of the 41-year-old Brazilian. Just before kick-off, the star clashed with Messi, followed by a warm hug. 
Ronaldinho was under contract with PSG between 2001 and 2003, after which he joined Barcelona. The Brazilian experienced Messi’s rise to prominence during his time in Catalonia. In fact, it was Ronaldinho who provided the assist for Messi’s first goal in La Liga, in 2005 against Albacete, see below.
