Cristiano Ronaldo goes live on Instagram by accident
However, Ronaldo recently went live on Instagram by accident as over 700k fans were puzzled by it all. The Portuguese forward kept staring into the camera as he showed his sauna and back garden to the fans. He didn’t say anything at all throughout the stream.
Rio Ferdinand, Ronaldo’s Manchester United teammate from his first stint, asked the superstar what he was doing, to no avail. Ferdinand and Ronaldo played together for United from 2003 to 2009, winning everything that they could win in club football.
Fans were puzzled by the entire thing and were joking about it on Twitter.

The young star is following in his father’s footsteps as he had an amazing goal record for Juventus’s youth teams. It’ll be interesting to see if he can play at a similar level at United. His father has certainly been very prolific for his club and has kept his form at United going right now.
