Brazil-Sweden: Alexandre Pato Joins Elite Group

After scoring that beauty of a goal against Sweden Alexandre Pato succeeded in doing that which few have done in netting on his very first outing for Brazil.

In doing so Pato has joined the ranks of a list that previously only had four players: Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Zico, Pele and now Pato.

Pato having joined this elite club now has to live up to the weight of the yellow jersey and the Royalty of the other legendary names he now stands with side by side.

Only time will tell if Pato can go on to become a world-class football legend.

Judging by the quality of that goal against poor old Rami Shaaban there must be great things to come.

However many a great potential star has faded to injury and other circumstances so for now it's just wait and see.

The Olympics could be a good playing field for Pato to affirm himself with a title.
