“I made a new friend” – Cristiano Ronaldo’s touching gesture to a boy from Armenia

On September 6, Portugal faced Armenia away from home. The Portuguese side demolished their opponents with a resounding 5-0 victory. Before the opening whistle, a heartwarming moment unfolded: the boy who accompanied Ronaldo onto the pitch couldn’t take his eyes off his idol, glancing back several times and eventually bursting into tears, overwhelmed by emotion. Cristiano offered comfort—smiling, giving a thumbs-up, and embracing him.
