In case you didn't read the headline, Ze Roberto is 42 years old. Four decades plus two. Like Francesco Totti though, he's aging like fine wine, and still getting it done on the pitch in Brazil.

The former Real Madrid and Bayern Munich midfielder is the Palmeiras captain now, where he's still producing moments of magic like this:

Look at this guy. He barely looks 30 years old, much less 42. It's a fantastic piece of skill, but it's even more amazing when you think about the fact that Ze Roberto scored this goal on the same day 13-year-old Karamoko Dembele made his debut for the Celtic Under-20s.

Ze Roberto doesn't look like he's slowing down anytime soon. And if he keeps scoring goals like this, who's to say he can't play till he's 50?
