After 36 minutes, Ronaldinho passed to Lorenzo Lonardi, who found Giulio Donati, who thundered home to make it 1-0.
Interest in Ronaldinho's sensational comeback, which was announced a few weeks ago, meant that Ravenna had to erect a temporary stand to accommodate additional spectators at their home ground, Stadio Bruno Benelli.
Earlier this summer, the former superstar was ready to join the Italian club, of which he is also a minority owner, more than ten years after ending his career at Fluminense.
By then, Ronaldinho had enjoyed a fabulous career, winning World Cup gold in 2002, playing for Barcelona and Milan, among other clubs, and being named the world's best player in 2005.
The match against Forlì is under way.
