Veteran Nollywood actor Charles Inojie has gone viral after an emotional video showed him shedding tears while watching a touching tribute to football icon Cristiano Ronaldo.
The clip, which has been widely shared on social media, captured the actor struggling to hold back his emotions as he watched the heartfelt video on his phone.
In the tribute, a woman wearing a Portugal jersey praised Ronaldo's remarkable career and described him as the greatest footballer of all time. She also reflected on the possibility that the ongoing FIFA World Cup could mark the final chapter of his international career.
The emotional moment comes after Portugal's exit from the 2026 FIFA World Cup, following a 1-0 defeat to Spain in the Round of 16.
Ronaldo, who had earlier revealed that the tournament would be his last World Cup, was visibly emotional after the final whistle.
Despite the disappointment, the Portuguese captain later stated that he is not retiring from international football and remains focused on helping his country while pursuing the milestone of 1,000 career goals.
Charles Inojie's heartfelt reaction has resonated with many football fans, with social media users praising the actor for openly expressing his admiration for the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.
The viral clip has also highlighted Ronaldo's lasting influence beyond football, as fans and celebrities around the world continue to celebrate the legacy of one of the sport's greatest players.
