Rivaldo and son both score in same game

After coming out of retirement, Rivaldo joined his son in finding the net in Brazil's Serie B.

Brazil legend Rivaldo and 20-year-old son Rivaldinho were both on the score sheet as Mogi Mirim beat Macae 3-1 in the country's second tier on Tuesday.

The 43-year-old elected to come out of retirement last month, with Mogi Mirim - a club where he is also president - battling against relegation.

That decision has, thus far, paid off.

Rivaldo made his return in a 2-1 win over Nautico a week ago and his 17th-minute penalty was sandwiched between two goals from his son against Macae.
