Lisbon [Portugal]: Portuguese star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo now has another statue made in his honour – this time in ice.
Russia have created 40 football related ice sculptures ahead of the World Cup in the summer and the Real Madrid star is the latest to join the collection.
The fans, however, have not quite liked the new sculpture and have compared it to the bust that was put up in his honour at the Madeira Airport, which is known as the Cristiano Ronaldo Airport, last year, reports the Goal.
Ronaldo fans went into a frenzy after the airport statue was unveiled and the artist was even reportedly asked to build a new statue.
