Cristiano Ronaldo took a moment to take a picture with a young child who invaded the pitch during Portugal’s game with Turkey.
Ronaldo gleefully embraced the young child, whose invasion of the picture brought the game to an abrupt halt.
The former Real Madrid striker also posed for a selfie with the pitch invader, much to the delight of spectators.
Bernardo Silva’s first goal at a major tournament, a calamitous own goal from Samet Akaydin and a Bruno Fernandes tap-in, gave Portugal a comfortable 3-0 win over Turkey on Saturday to guarantee qualification for the last 16 as Group F winners.
Silva gave Portugal the lead in the 21st minute, rifling home after Nuno Mendes’ cross deflected kindly into his path before Akaydin failed to look and passed the ball beyond onrushing goalkeeper Altay Bayindir seven minutes later.
Fernandes effectively ended the contest after 56 minutes when Cristiano Ronaldo, who could have become the oldest goalscorer in European Championship history, selflessly passed to his former Manchester United teammate to tap home.
The victory secures Portugal’s progress, while Turkey must avoid defeat on Wednesday to the Czech Republic, who drew 1-1 with Georgia earlier on Saturday, to be certain of qualifying for the knockout rounds.
