Sunday’s game (6 September) was Portugal’s first game in the UEFA Nation League. The Portuguese team achieved a 4-1 victory against Croatia, finalists of the 2018 World Cup. However, Ronaldo, who is the captain of the Portugal team, did not play in the match and was only watching from the spectator seat.

The video that went viral on Twitter also caught the attention of many Malaysians who compared Ronaldo to Malaysian ministers. Some of the tweets were primarily comments about how certain “VIPs” were getting away with not following SOPs.
