FIFA remembers Ronaldo's step-over dribble of Richard Kingson at the 2006 World Cup

The Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) has revisited Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima's iconic step-over goal against Ghana in 2006.

The official FIFA account posted a video of the goal, showing Ronaldo sending Richard Kingson the wrong way with a sleek step-over before slotting the ball home.

"Ronaldo + Stepovers = A Lethal Combination" reads the caption for the video.

The video sparked reactions from some Ghanaians who recalled the Black Stars' impressive performance despite the loss. Meanwhile, some consider the moment as one of Richard Kingson's worst in his international career.

The goal was the opener for Brazil in their 3-0 victory at the Signal Iduna Park in Germany.

The game was Ghana's first-ever World Cup knockout match. Ghana, who were debutants, finished second in their group with 6 points, just one point behind Italy.

Impressive victories over the Czech Republic and the USA set up the match against Brazil, who won their group by winning all three games.
