Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo shared a lighthearted moment with a fan who claimed to resemble him. The incident took place at Al Awwal Park in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, ahead of Al Nassr’s match against Al Shabab in the Saudi Pro League.
A video capturing the exchange has quickly gone viral, showing Ronaldo engaging with the fan near the touchline during his team’s pre-match warm-up. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner, known for his confidence and charisma, playfully told the fan, “Bro, you don’t look like me (x2), you’re very ugly.”
Despite the humorous jab, the fan took it in good spirits, responding, “You are the best bro, wallahi.”
The moment, which was caught on camera by spectators, has sparked reactions online, with many fans seeing it as a light-hearted joke rather than an insult. Some social media users pointed out Ronaldo’s long history of playful interactions with fans, while others debated whether the remark was too harsh.
Ronaldo later went on to score Al Nassr’s second goal of the match. However, his efforts were not enough to secure a win, as the team ended up with a disappointing 2-2 draw against Al Shabab. The result left Al Nassr frustrated in their pursuit of the league title.
