carries points as well as extra0:15ticket charges for supporters.0:17The sporting test is how much he can contribute after just one scheduled training0:21session with his teammates.0:22Ravenna face local rivals Foral at Stadio Bruno Benelli on Sunday, November15.0:26Kickoff is five thirty in the afternoon, Italian time.0:29The fixture belongs to Serie C, Italy's third division, where Ronaldinho is due to0:33make his first Ravenna appearance.0:35Manager Andrea Mandrolini committed to starting him on Friday.0:38His words were unequivocal about selection, but flexible about the workload.0:42He said Ronaldinho and the coaching staff would decide together how long he stays0:46on.0:46Mandrolini plans to use him as one of three forwards in Ravenna's usual four three0:50three.0:51His teammates will adapt to his positioning.0:53The coach has suggested around half an hour, with the actual duration depending on0:57their joint decision.0:58He also insists Ravenna have to get a result.1:01Ronaldinho last played competitively for Fluminense against Goyez in September2015.1:06He's continued playing charity, testimonial, and display matches, including the1:09Kings League in2023.1:11November15 would bring him back into a professional league fixture, with its1:14different pace and demands.1:16The former Barcelona and Milan playmaker is a World Cup winner and a former Balondor1:20winner.1:20He initially joined Ravenna as an investor in August.1:23He's also spoken about wanting one final goal to take his career tally to three1:27hundred.1:27Ronaldinho says his friendship with club president Ignacio Cipriani helped persuade1:32him to play, alongside their hopes for the future.1:34He hasn't spelled out those plans.1:36His immediate ambition is to bring joy to Ravenna's supporters and make the occasion1:40special for his fellow players.1:41He arrived in Italy on Friday with Cipriani and club director Lorenzo Tonetti, then1:46had dinner with his new teammates that evening.1:48The club's preparation program allowed very little time to work together before the1:51derby.1:52The club scheduled an individual workout behind closed doors on Friday, followed by1:56a final team session on Saturday morning at the Benelli.1:58That leaves one planned session alongside the first team before Sunday's match.2:02Media access to Saturday's session was limited to its first fifteen minutes, with2:06the rest closed.2:07Mandorlini acknowledged that event matches and a professional league game make2:11different demands on a player.2:13Subscribe to this

nine, drawn two, and lost two.2:24That total comes from the matches themselves, before any administrative adjustments,2:28and gives the Derby a competitive purpose beyond Ronaldinho's appearance.2:31Ravenna entered the weekend second in the table, and this is round fourteen.2:35Mandorlini said the squad had trained with concentration despite the attention2:39surrounding Ronaldinho.2:40At Friday's preview, he had the full squad available.2:43Simone Rabai already has eight league goals for Ravenna.2:45He says Ronaldinho will take any penalty the team receives.2:48Rabbi

coaches.2:59Nicola Campidelli resigned, leaving his assistant Gianluigi Bomante in charge.3:03Bomante coached Massa Lombarda in Excellenza for the previous two seasons.3:07Mandrolini called Campadelli a friend and expressed regret over his departure.3:11Foralls sit fourteenth, two points above the relegation, playout places.3:14Ravenna last beat them in a league match in November2020,4 .3:18For both neighbors, the immediate task is collecting points, even with a famous3:22opponent drawing the attention.3:24Bomonte is expected to retain Forals3 :5 ,2 , with Caveri and Petrelli in attack.3:28Those remain projected choices ahead of the final lineup.3:31Mandorlini says Ravenna must focus on their own performance and taking points from3:35the Derby.3:36Heavy rain before Friday's comments added to worries about the Benelli's playing3:40surface, which had already experienced problems.3:42The match remains scheduled.3:43The final condition of the pitch will be another practical

area.3:55The club has also changed the admission arrangements, including for supporters who3:58bought season tickets.3:59Season tickets don't cover this fixture.4:01Ravenna designated it a giornata
