Cristiano Ronaldo has nothing but time for his legions of fans. Especially the ones who risk the wrath of security personnel.
In a familiar act, the Portuguese icon allowed a pitch invader to pose for a selfie during Monday's World Cup qualifier against the Faroe Islands.
Ernesto Ferrari Henriquez quickly posted the fruit of his escapade on Facebook, claiming the encounter amounted to the "best day of my life."
Ronaldo, who scored in Portugal's comprehensive 6-0 triumph, has long been patient with fans who race onto the pitch in search of a quick snap; the photogenic scoring machine granted another admirer the same opportunity during Euro 2016.
