It’s not easy to live up to the expectations that follow when your father is Cristiano Ronaldo.
Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. is doing his best, as he was the only Al-Nassr player named Ronaldo going viral for a free kick this week. That is, until his dad posted this video on Instagram.
CR7 tells his son “watch and learn”
38-year-old Ronaldo was eager to prove exactly where his son got those iconic free kick skills from, so he posted a video on Instagram from a near-identical location at the Al Nassr FC training ground in order to show him how it’s done.
“Cris, Watch and Learn,” he said in the caption of the post.
He left no doubt, planting the free kick in the top right corner, just like Junior. But a few of CR7’s 617 million folowers teased him in the comments.
“like father. Like son. Cristiano Junior is better,” one commenter ribbed.
“When your dad challenges you on social media,” another comment said with a laugh.
