Ronaldinho Soccer star loses $750,000 Coke deal for drinking Pepsi
All soccer superstar Ronaldinho wanted to do was quench his thirst when he sipped from a can of Pepsi during a press conference. But that seemingly innocuous gesture revived a longstanding feud between soft drink giants Coco Cola and Pepsi.
According to The Atlanta Journal Constitution, the Atlanta-based Coke reacted to Ronaldinho’s two-timing by yanking the Brazilian star’s lucrative $750,000 sponsorship. That’ll teach him to be faithful.
“The fact that the player has appeared with a can of Pepsi was the straw that broke the camel’s back,” Coca-Cola marketing chief Marcelo Pontes told the newspaper. “The sponsorship had become embarrassing.”
The press conference was held to promote his new team, Atletico Mineiro, of which Pepsi is a sponsor. Coke’s $750,000 sponsorship deal with Ronaldinho was scheduled to run through 2014.

Soccer Player Rips the Net
Chelsea new player Lucas Piazon scores for Brazil U17.
Brazil's Lucas Piazon, who is known as "the new Kaka," kicked the ball a little too hard in Saturday's under-17 match against Paraguay. The teenage soccer star, who recently signed a huge deal with Chelsea, received a pass right in front of the goal and blasted it into the right side of the goal. The ball was kicked so hard that it went through the netting. Paraguay went on to win the match 2-1.
