Cristiano Ronaldo recently turned to social media for help in locating a devoted Al Nassr fan. Early on October 26 (Hanoi time), Ronaldo shared a touching video on his personal account capturing an emotional moment of an older man wearing Ronaldo’s No. 7 jersey. In the video, the man is seen overwhelmed with emotion, tearing up and chanting Ronaldo’s name from the stands. Alongside the clip, Ronaldo wrote, “Find this man. I would be incredibly grateful if anyone could provide information about him.”
The post quickly went viral, capturing the attention of millions. Many fans believe this supporter was deeply moved by witnessing his idol playing for Al Nassr. The Al Nassr Zone fan page commented, “Cristiano, the man with a warm heart.” Another account added, “This must be a moment he’ll never forget.”
Ronaldo did not play in Al Nassr’s 3-3 draw with Al Kholood in the 8th round of the Saudi Pro League on October 25. In his place, Talisca led the attack, shining with a double that included a dramatic last-minute penalty goal at 90+5.
According to Saudi media, Coach Stefano Pioli had given Ronaldo the green light to rest for this match. However, the specific reason for his absence remains unclear, potentially linked to him spending time caring for his girlfriend or focusing on his own recovery.
Ronaldo’s girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, had been hospitalized for four days with pneumonia and was just discharged on October 25. She shared on her social media, “Finally, I am back home after four days in the hospital due to pneumonia. I feel better now but still need some time to fully recover.”
