On October 24, while on a professional visit to Saudi Arabia, FIFA President Gianni Infantino attended the AFC Champions League match between Al-Nassr and Al Duhail in Riyadh.

Even with the excitement caused by Cristiano Ronaldo’s spectacular brace and goals from Sadio Mane and Anderson Talisca, Infantino seemed calm and unperturbed, as if the thrilling moments on the field and the celebrations that followed didn’t change him.

Even though the game was an emotional rollercoaster, Infantino didn’t seem to be phased by any of the game’s high points, such as Cristiano Ronaldo’s amazing goals.

Fans were ecstatic as the 38-year-old star scored two incredible goals, but the FIFA president didn’t seem to be phased, watching as Ronaldo and his teammates celebrated and the audience joined in, according to CristianoXtra.

Despite Infantino’s lack of obvious emotion after Ronaldo’s outstanding performance for Al-Nassr in the AFC Champions League match against Al Duhail, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner was showered with accolades from social media users.

Ronaldo’s major contributions started early in the match when he set up Brazilian striker Anderson Talisca, who converted it with style. Later on in the game, he scored two crucial goals that put an end to Al Duhail’s hopes of making a comeback.
