Barcelona legend Ronaldinho’s Twitter account hacked and name changed to ‘Lionel Messi is my God’
Ronaldinho's Twitter account turned into a Lionel Messi fan page on Tuesday.
Unless the Brazil legend has suddenly become a devoted fanboy of the Argentina World Cup winner, then his account was probably hacked.

Ronaldinho's name was changed to 'Lionel Messi is my God' and several messages were sent to his 21.5million followers.
His account, without a blue tick, posted: "I've always dreamed of learning how to play football. But Lionel Messi did it better than me."
Another said: "Messi is great."
The messages have since been deleted and everything returned back to their normal state.
Ronaldinho and Messi were teammates for a long period at Barcelona, playing together 80 times.
The Brazilian even assisted the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner for his first ever Barca goal back in 2004.

Together, they won two LaLiga titles and the Champions League before Ronaldinho swapped Spain for AC Milan.
The Brazilian played 204 times for Barca during his five seasons with the club, scoring 94 times.
His son, Joao Mendes, could also follow in his footsteps by playing for the Catalan club.
The 18-year-old striker recently signed a contract with Barca's youth academy following a trial.
He also reportedly kept the identity of his father secret during that trial.
