Summer time, time for friendly matches. One of the most fascinating was The Beautiful Game, the match between the teams chosen by two Brazilian football legends, namely Ronaldinho and Roberto Carlos. In the DRV PNK Stadium at Inter Miami, David Beckham's club, champions from all eras faced each other, including Cafu, Nani, Radamel Falcao, Paul Dybala, Paul Pogba, Vinicius Jr, Blaise Matuidi, Rene Higuita, Arturo Vidal, Sebastien Frey, basketball player Jimmy Butler, former NFL star Chad 'Ocho Cinco' Johnson and 11-year-old phenom Ariana Dos Santos

In the end it was Roberto Carlos' team that prevailed 12-10, in a challenge full of goals amid the enthusiasm of the local public for what could become the first of a long series of editions.
