Surprise! Ronaldo Leads Corinthians over Santos

Here are two goals from the "Original Ronaldo" as his Corinthians beat up on Santos (yes, Pele's Santos) in the first leg of the Paulista championship final.

Even the original Pele had good things to say (which seems to be out of character for him these days):

"The ball landed at the feet of a player who doesn't miss," Pele told reporters. "Ronaldo makes the difference. The second goal was worthy of the World Cup."

I have to say I'm stunned. Ronaldo, even at 30 lbs over, still has that killer instinct. His tally: eight goals in 10 games.

Wow:

- Ronaldo scores twice in Corinthians win Guardian
- Ronaldo steers Corinthians to Victory FIFA
- Always count on Ronaldo SportsYA

PS - Maybe Dunga will bring him back after all!?
