'The farewell of a great,' the headline read. Above it, a photograph of Ronaldo - the original, Brazilian one - shedding a tear. It's a reaction one would expect of the press in Brazil, given all that O Fenômeno has done for the country's national team and the joy he's given to fans there and across Europe. It's a sign of the magnitude of greatness under consideration, though, that this headline isn't taken from a Brazilian website. Nor from a site in one of the three European countries whose leagues he graced - the Netherlands, Italy and Spain. It was the main headline on the website of Argentina's Olé on Monday morning.
