Cristiano Ronaldo was approached by several pitch invaders during Portugal’s friendly defeat to the Netherlands, with one attempting to kiss the Real Madrid star.
Portugal entered the match in good form after two goals from Ronaldo sealed a 2-1 win over Egypt last week, but Fernando Santos’ side found themselves three goals down by half-time.
Former Manchester United winger Memphis Depay opened the scoring before ex-Liverpool winger Ryan Babel and current Reds star Virgil van Dijk both found the net.
Joao Cancelo was sent off just past the hour on a miserable night for Portugal, although captain Ronaldo still seemed a big hit with the fans.
The 33-year-old was hugged by one supporter wearing a Real Madrid shirt before another took a selfie then attempted to kiss him on the cheek.
Both individuals were escorted off the field by security but two more fans evaded stewards to approach Ronaldo before he was substituted.
Netherlands led thanks to goals from Depay, Ryan Babel and Virgil Van Djik.
