Ronaldinho smashed a window in the centuries-old cathedral of Santiago de Compostela while filming an advert for television today. Luckily for the Barcelona star, the window was only a small, modern addition to Spain’s famous cathedral in Galicia. The Brazilian blundered after being asked to try a scissor-kick beneath the cathedral’s 12th century Portico de la Gloria (Portal of Glory). ‘I asked Ronanldinho to hit the ball as hard as he could and he had the bad luck to hit the window,’ said the advert’s director Emil Sampler. ‘It was my fault.’
