Wesley Sneijder's son scores during Ronaldinho's Legends Cup
During the Ronaldinho's Legends Cup in Klagenfurt, Austria, ten-year-old Xess Xava, the son of former footballer Wesley Sneijder, scored a goal during a match between Ronaldinho's team and the Austria Legends XI.
The goal occurred shortly after Xess Xava entered the game alongside his father. The young player scored following a combination involving an assist from Wesley Sneijder and a pass from the 46-year-old Brazilian star Ronaldinho. The match ultimately ended in a 7-7 draw.
Wesley Sneijder noted that the arrangement for his son to play for five minutes was pre-planned and described the experience as unforgettable.
