Football fans express their deep affection for their clubs and favourite players, sometimes in extraordinary ways that can be unfathomable at times.
Recently, a devoted Cristiano Ronaldo supporter took fandom to new heights with a unique tribute to the Al-Nassr captain.
In a video circulating on social media, seen by Sports Brief, the young adult, donning Al-Nassr's home kit, passionately honoured Ronaldo with an enthusiastic rendition of the Portuguese star's iconic 'Siuu' goal celebration.
This heartfelt display occurred outside what seemed to be Inter Miami's DRV PNK Stadium, despite both the Major League Soccer and Saudi Pro League being on break until next month.

FootballWhile the reasons behind this fan's homage remain unclear, his choice to perform 'Siuu' hints at a playful gesture, likely aimed at sparking some lighthearted banter.
His spirited act outside Inter Miami's stadium adds an intriguing prelude to the highly anticipated clash between Ronaldo and his perennial rival Lionel Messi, dubbed the "Last Dance," set for February 1 in the Riyadh Season Cup, featuring Neymar's Al-Hilal, Hindustan Times reports.
Before their showdown, these football icons, boasting a staggering 13 Ballon d'Or awards combined, are enjoying well-deserved rest following their taxing 2023 seasons.
Ronaldo notably steered Al-Nassr to their inaugural Arab Cup victory, securing numerous personal milestones, including finishing the year as the top scorer with 54 goals in 59 games, according to GOAL.
Meanwhile, Messi capped off the year with an unprecedented eighth Ballon d'Or triumph while guiding the Herons to claim the Leagues Cup by triumphing over Nashville in a penalty shootout, per Al Jazeera.
