The Portuguese was seen poking fun with the social media personality ahead of Al-Nassr’s Saudi Pro League clash with Al-Shabab on Friday at the Al-Awwal Park.
While warming up for the game, the former Manchester United man spotted a fan who looked like him in the stands. Before now, Akdogan has gained a lot of fame due to his resemblance to the Portuguese superstar. He has shifted to Saudi Arabia and creates content from comedy to football.
Akdogan has a significant following on social media and is often seen roaming the streets of Riyadh, catching unsuspecting fans off guard.
He was in the stands for Al-Nassr’s game this week and caught Cristiano Ronaldo’s attention.
A funny exchange followed, where the five-time Ballon d’Or winner was seen teasing Akdogan and calling him ‘ugly.’
“Bro, you don’t look like me. You don’t look like me. You’re very ugly,” Ronaldo said (via journalist Khalid Alolyan’s X handle).
Akdogan took the matter sportingly, smiling all through the exchange, and persistently called the Portuguese ‘the best.’
He said: “You are the best. You are the best bro. You are the best.”
Despite Cristiano Ronaldo scoring the second goal for his team, the game turned out to be a frustrating affair for Al-Nassr as it ended in a 2-2 draw.
