Ronaldinho Slams 'Average' Brazil Ahead Of Copa America

Ronaldinho Slams 'Average' Brazil Ahead Of Copa America

Brazil legend Ronaldinho has slammed the current Selecao side for their lack of quality and says he won't be supporting the team.

The five-time World Cup winners go into this year's Copa America as one of the favourites behind defending champions Argentina.

Ronaldinho, who is a World Cup and Copa America winner, feels the current state of the national side is sad to see.

"It's difficult to find energy to watch the games," Ronaldinho wrote on Instagram.

"This is maybe one of the worst teams in recent years, it has no respectable leaders, just average players for the most part.

"I've been following football since I was a kid, long before I thought about becoming a player, and I've never seen a situation as bad as this.

"There's a lack of love for the shirt, a lack of determination and most importantly [a lack of] football.

"The performance has been one of the worst things I've ever seen. It's a shame. That's why I declare I'm giving up here.

"I won't watch any CONMEBOL Copa América games and I won't celebrate if Brazil win."

Brazil start their Copa America campaign against Costa Rica on 25 June in California.
