A teenage fan broke into Ronaldo's hotel room. You'll never guess what happened next
A Brazilian fan decided that it would be a good idea to break into Cristiano Ronaldo's hotel room on Wednesday in Brasilia where they were staying for their match with Ghana. But then he got caught ...by Ronaldo himself, according to a report by a Brazil's Globo.
In fact, 15-year-old Yago Leal told the news outlet, Ronaldo didn't even call security - he apparently offered the boy an autograph and showed him the way out. Although, he was a little surprised to find someone in his room (it makes sense). Leal said he evaded security, found a way to the roof, and then ended up on Ronaldo's balcony.
Also, this is mildly terrifying.
“I lay in (Ronaldo’s) bed because I knew he’d slept in it, and when he came in, I was there. He was good to me," Leal told Globo, as translated by the Daily Mail. "He said that I had better go, but that he would not call security.”
I. Knew. He'd. Slept. In. It.
Here is one of the photos he took as he was escaping:
