Ronald Araujo vs Freestyle Champions (EPIC 1 vs 1) 

so much respect for Araujo, most the pro players you see in these challenges barely try and give minimal effort, but Araujo actually put some effort and was out of breath by the end of it which he didn't have to do. He shows respect to the players by giving them his effort.

Ronald Araujo is crazy good but this challenge was too easy for him!

Really goes to show difficult it is at the professional level, crazy player, he's a beast Visca Barca 💙❤️

Ronald Araujo, one of my favourite players, inspires me as a centre back and is a Uruguayan hero. What a legend.

Even as a rival fan, I have respect for Araujo, he’s definitely one of the best defenders in the world, the physicality and speed is insane

Araujo is a truly world class defender and at the same time really humble. What a role model. Love this dude so much 👍

As an offensive player who really liked to dribble I found this one on one training games against good defenders more difficult than dribbling in real game situations. Reason is probably that the defender can solely concentrate on your actions, no flurring activities around, no choice of passing instead of dribbling, etc, and if he is fast and has good positional skill it is hard to get past a defender. And in some situations it seemed to be easyier to dribble against two defenders, using open space between them and the fact that each of them is relying on the other one to react and close the space. This doesn't happen when the defenders knows he' s the only one in charge

When I was in highschool there was a freestyler at my school people used to form crowds and watch him freestyle after class. Me and my friends a few of us we played at provincial level which was the highest before professional or semi professional. I remember he joined us for a 6 a side game half field and he couldn’t get a single touch on the ball. Very different playing real football against real defenders and playing futsal

His physical is so good

The fact that he was giving tips and explains how he defends each situation, It just shows how good he is on and off the pitch. 🔥🔴🔵

His quickness, size and position are so impressive. Anyone who tried to best him with speed lost. Incredible.

I played semi-pro in my country and played against a ton of great defenders. In this situation I would typically feint once, maybe twice, move diagonally to either side and use my body strength to shield the ball as I shoot to find a corner. Ofcourse Araujo is one of the best in the world - but picking freestylers for this particular challenge makes it stupidly easy for him.

Makes you wonder how insanely good prime Messi and Ronaldo must've been to be able to dribble past and score against so many great defenders and goalkeepers.

He’s so fast. His leg muscles are sick man!! It really put it into perspective. Shows how good they are!

Such a cool video. It’s so humbling to see a pro just absolutely demolish these skilled players. What an incredible defender. Not only is he a physical monster, his reaction time is so fast.

El físico y la inteligencia de Araujo 🔥💪❤💙

Araujo is such an extraordinary defender. Being capable of having such incredible speed even with his size, u could literally call this man an inhumane beast! What a player! Being a die-hard Barca-fan i gotta say that he is going to be a legend of the club in the future.

This might be my favourite challenge so far. Just shows how good professional ballers are, those guys were good players but didn’t stand a chance. Araujo dropped some defensive gems in this one!

This was such an awesome video ! First one I see from this series. Araujo showed his World Class abilities but what I loved most is how humble and down to earth he was with all these guys trying to humiliate him 😂

Qué buena onda es Araujo jajaja. Increíble defensa pero incluso todavía mejor persona 👏

Araujo is so good, the fact he even thought of a strategy to get the ball back, plus he’s so fast while having such a strong physical. These videos truly show the difference between a professional player and an amateur

Genuinely my favourite player in Barcelona, insane dedication and he truly plays for the badge.

I love these videos. It shows the chasm between VERY good amateur players and what a pro is capable of.

He's a perfect captain for Barça and that should happen as soon as possible. He was a huge part of our defensive masterclass 2022-2023 season alongside Kounde, Christensen, Balde and New-Hair MATS.

this just proves how amazing of a guy he really is ❤️💙

"Pasa la pelota, pero no el jugador" Un capo Araujo!

Just a great video to watch for any decent amateur forward who thinks they're as good as top level players. we're absolutely not, it's just the defenders we play against can't move properly. he turns so quickly its terrifying.

Un animal Araujo, ya sea de lateral o de central es un tipo fuertísimo y muy difícil de superar.

No soy Culé, no soy uruguayo, pero las cosas como son, Araujo es un jugadorazo, de central, lateral, coberturas, mano a mano, como sea... un monstruo, será (si es que ya no lo es) uno de los mejores defensas del mundo....saludos al profe Bielsa desde Chile!

Araujo is my most favourite CB in present. But I love to see him in RB against Vinicius.

Great challenge. It shows actually how hard is to be good pro football player. Those guys shine in the footsal and can do amazing tricks but have 0 chance in real football pitch vs pro players.

this video is really good. really authentic. you guys literally went out and scouted players

This shows the huge difference between a professional and a good streetballer. Very good video! What a great defender Araujo as become!!

Creo que cualquier persona q sea defensa este vídeo le va a servir bastante y el respeto q genera es increíble. Que gran jugador tenemos 💙❤️

Sou brasileiro mas para mim é o melhor zagueiro da atualidade

its so nice you guys gave regular players a chance! amazing video! best day of their lives fr sure! Cant imagine if I ever faced my favourite team liverpool's football player :D

Araujo is mad man for real.. my favorite defender right now.. So underrated but he literally has everything. If he improves his passing and he continues to develop more n more easily canbe a contender for best defender of all time.. Força Barça

As a Barcelona fan, I knew there was no freaking way any amateur football player going to beat this guy one vs one. Not even a single percentage of chance, Even a player like Vini Jr and Rashford struggled against him. ARAUJO IS A FREAKING BEAST & that leg muscles man 😩 and his physicality and strength plus his speed and defending IQ, Barcelona are really lucky to have this guy in team ❤️✨ Thank you shoot for love for bring this guy love your contents. 😍

"are there any ambulance 🚑 here today" 😂😂😂

What great defender! I learned a lot by watching him play. Thank you!

I’m 18 and I’ve been a Barca fan since it’s seems forever ago back in the MSN era and that champions league comeback against PSG. So I’ve known about and admired Araujo since he burst onto the first team scene. Watching him grow as an elite young defender it has been a joy to see his dedication and love for the club. Future Barca Captain! Visca Barca❤💙⚽️

Araujo como siempre respetando a todos los rivales y dándolo todo, grande el charrua !!!

Que crack este tipo, encima se nota que es un buen capitán de la defensa, con todos los conocimientos que tiene, su carácter, liderazgo y su forma de ser. Como defensor y persona 10/10

Araujo is my favorite footballer. I‘m so happy that he is in a video of you guys.❤💙

This is just proof that pro footballers are a different breed. Not just the talent but the sheer pace and intensity. It's unreal.

It was the best experience ! Thank Jam and Cam for the invite ! 🙏🏽 I hope to see you again when I will be fitter 😂 Yamsi

Araujo seems to be a genuine person and passionate footballer. Hope he has a great career in Barca.

Goes to show how crazy good professionals are

Ronald Araujo es increible, que gran jugador con él en el Barcelona somos una muralla 🔥🔥❤️💙

What amazes me about him is upon all his defensive prowess, He also got the footworks that really makes a very good attacker! I love Ronald❤️🇺🇾

The ending actually had me laughing when he ball rolled the keeper and then lost control😂😂

Araujo has improved a lot past the years. Mad respect!

The lesson is that while freestyle is cool, to compete at pro match level is another set of skills.Incredible how fast Araujo is at defending.

Even though these people may not be professional footballers, the fact that not a single person managed to get past him or score is just insane and shows how good he is

Solid defensive skills.🔥

Great video! We need challenges like this one

Un monstruo en defensa. Increíble lo fácil que lo hace ver.

O Ronald Araújo é um baita zagueiro ! Evoluiu muito na marcação e principalmente na consistência defensiva.

He has such a strong stiff arm and his pace is crazy

Him giving advice and tricks in the video can actually be useful for me for tonight’s match. He is a beast ❤️💙

One of the best Defenders at the moment, he is one of the reasons why Barça got so many clean sheets and won la liga

Araujo is so good idk how professional footballers get past him

This video is awesome advise from a RB or LB, great video

Incredible performance araujo! Clean sheets. Keep it up guys, do more amateur vs professional footballers so we'll know how good they are!

El futuro que tiene araujo como jugador será de lo más brillante que se pueda esperar mucha admiración hacia el 🙏🏻

Amazing video. Tq for making this video. I learned a lot about the science of defending

SOY DEL MADRID PERO DESEARÍA QUE ARUAJO ESTUVIESE CON NOSOTROS! ES UNA BESTIA! 😮

El físico y la inteligencia de Araujo es bestial 🔥💪❤️💙

Araujo is one of my favourite defenders and players in the world currently, his combination of speed, strength and awareness is incredible.

This puts into perspective the levels of talent…the man wasn’t even at an official game mindset and made it look easy

Ronald Araujo, Hermano colombiano. Saludos desde Colombia

Araujo is probably gonna be the best defender in 3-4 years and maybe even surpass Van Dijk if he wins a champions league without major injuries I just love how aggressive he is, and how menacing he is just watching him beating some of the world's best players in almost every 1v1 just gets me hyped.

Que interesante, Araujo además de su corpulencia es tácticamente inteligente además que solo con ver este reto se ve lo competitivo que es el mejor central de la Liga Española 👏🏻🔥🔝⚽

Best latin america defender by far. And one of the best in the world too. Nace video. Greetings from Argentina

More of this please ❤⚽️

Mejor defensa de la liga y quiza del mundo ahora mismo. Gran uruguayo haciendo historia en el mundo 🇺🇾🙌

Araujo! Our young Uruguayan brick wall, so much love from your culér 🔥

Love seeing a pro defender demonstrating how to defend 1v1.. Being very good in freestyle is totally very very different when comes to playing on a 11-a-side pitch.. Pro defender doesn't commit that easily and love seeing how Araujo is always ready to accelerate, never keep his body flat facing the opponent and once the defender tries to beat him, off he goes full force with his body to knock the opponent off balance.. Totally love it.. I myself play as a defender and still trying to learn about the right timing. But it is really too bad.. I would love to see a 2v1 against Araujo because an attacker having an option to pass needs a different strategy to defend. Hope there will be a chance to watch this..

Es un defensor. Muy fuerte, suerte para el Barcelona

You made me miss my team more through this boring summer 💙❤️

We are lucky to have this channel who gives all details about superstar players thanks you very much 🙏🙏

Me ha encantado el vídeo, m he reído mucho y aprendido, no os conocía, gracias!!

Buen jugador...qur bien que este con nosotros...fuerza barca❤

Looking forward to Araujo's next season!! What an amazing player he's been for Barca so far :)

I don't know how there are people who don't appreciate Araujo enough, if he is one of the best central defenders currently in football

Es impresionante la diferencia de un jugador profesional con los amateurs

I love this video, thank you.

I like how he analysed all the players so quickly

Isso só mostra o quanto os jogadores profissionais estão em um nível absurdo. Tudo bem que o Araújo é um dos melhores defensores do mundo, mas a dinâmica de ação dele é eficiente desde o praticante ocasional até Karim Benzema.

Good defender and a humble person

Araujo has a lot of potential to be one of the best defenders out there, in couple of years, and the fact he checked what foot the players are shows how intelligent he is. Love Araujo! ❤⚽️

You never can tell how difficult it is for attackers to get past defenders when you watch them on TV That's why Messi is the best attacker of all time looking at how many defenders he has gotten passed! and how many times he has done that Great job guys, I just subscribed

this was a banger vid. Up the challenge!

ABSOUTLY BEAST RONALD ARAUJO!

He’s honestly unbeatable. A brick wall 🇺🇾💙❤️

Araujo es una bestia en el 1vs1 , posiblemente su mayor fortaleza.. muy dificil el desafio para los Amateurs ,mis respetos para ellos.

His presence in front you is already so imposing. His strength and speed is incredible. I'd like the pros to try this with him. Am sure it won't be much h easier

Watched him play two years ago when he was rather unknown and i could already see that he was levels above other defenders. Been a fan of him since. Thanks for making these collabs videos ❤❤

Es una bestia es un mastodonte es una bala este tio será una leyenda como puyol entre otros

El mejor defensa del mundo y joven y capitán. De mis favoritos de mi equipo favorito ♥️💙❤💙
