Cristiano Ronaldo’s pre-match routine went awry when he said, “Bro, you don’t look like me, you are very ugly.”
A Portugal shirt-wearing fan with slicked-back black hair was seen in the stands before the game. Ronaldo supposedly noticed the resemblance. The spectator looked flustered but laughed as the five-time Ballon d’Or winner made the cheeky dig as he warmed up.
The fan kept smiling and gave Ronaldo a thumbs up after the comment, causing the footballer to smile back and give a thumbs up.
One social media user joked, “Does that mean he called himself ugly? ” Another follower responded, “Bro smiling through the pain,” with humor and sympathy for the doppelganger.
Al-Nassr drew 2-2 with Al-Shabab despite Ronaldo’s goal. Al-Nassr need this match to qualify for the AFC Champions League, although they may miss out.
Ronaldo’s antics off the pitch lightened the team’s bid for next season’s AFC Champions League.
