Cristiano Ronaldo has once again found himself in the spotlight, but this time it wasn’t for his performance on the pitch. The Portuguese star recently had a light-hearted exchange with a fan who closely resembled him—well, at least in the fan’s opinion.
The amusing interaction took place on Friday at Al Awwal Park in Riyadh, just before Al Nassr’s match against Al Shabab in the Saudi Pro League. As Ronaldo and his teammates went through their warm-up drills near the touchline, he noticed the lookalike and couldn’t resist cracking a joke.
“Bro, you don’t look like me, you’re very ugly,” Ronaldo teased. Instead of being offended, the fan took it in stride, responding enthusiastically, “You are the best, bro!” The interaction ended on a friendly note, with both exchanging smiles and a thumbs-up.

The clip of the moment quickly went viral, sparking a wave of reactions on social media. One fan quipped, “He didn’t say anything wrong—that guy doesn’t look like him at all!” Another observed, “Honestly, he looks more like a mix of Cancelo and CR7.”
A third joked, “Imagine your idol recognizing you… but not in the way you’d hoped.” Meanwhile, someone else playfully asked, “Wait… does that mean Ronaldo just called himself ugly?”
Though Ronaldo managed to score in the match, Al Nassr couldn’t secure the win, settling for a 2-2 draw. With the team battling for AFC Champions League qualification, every point is crucial. Currently in the fourth place, they are level with Al-Ahli on points but ahead only on goal difference, while league leaders Al-Ittihad remain 10 points clear.
