Ronaldinho backing Ronaldo
17/06/2006: Ronaldinho has backed his team-mate Ronaldo to rediscover his best form and help guide Brazil to World Cup glory.
The Real Madrid striker looked out of sorts in his country's 1-0 win over Croatia and was taken to hospital for a medical check in midweek after complaining of dizziness.
However Brazil officials insist Ronaldo is fully fit and Ronaldinho says he has the backing of the whole squad to deliver the goals and help his country retain their World crown.
"I am not worried about Ronaldo at all," said Ronaldinho. "He still has so much quality and all the players are very confident in him.
"In this squad, all the players help each other. Once the game starts, mentally we are fine and forget everything else that goes on."
He added: "I am sure Ronaldo will help us to win the World Cup."
