On Monday morning, Cristiano Ronaldo tweeted this rather excellent selfie that included the rest of his Portuguese team as they departed for the World Cup in Brazil.

It's a great photo. Smiling faces. The annoyingly beautiful Ronaldo with his perfectly manicured eyebrows. The mighty power of Raul Meireles's beard. Nani scaring children with his exaggerated peekaboo face. Lovely.
Nevertheless, it's got nothing on BBC Sporf's grotesque and gorgeous alterations:

Yes. Yes. A million times, yes. Salvador Dali meets Eusébio.
Behold the horror. Embrace its power.
