ROME - Former world player of the year Ronaldinho insisted on Saturday that he was not bitter at being overlooked by Brazil coach Dunga for the World Cup.

"My response was here on the pitch, but if he doesn't pick me for the national team it's his choice and I respect that," said Ronaldinho, who scored twice in AC Milan's 3-0 Serie A win over Juventus on Saturday.

"I've done many good things this season and I don't want to compare myself to others to see if I've done much more or much less." - Sapa-AFP
