- Shows Ronaldo's famous celebration
- Star set to play in World Cup
WHAT HAPPENED? A new waxwork sculpture of Cristiano Ronaldo has been unveiled in New York's Times Square ahead of Portugal's first game of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. The wax figure shows Ronaldo in his green and red national team kit, posing in his famous “Siuuu” goal celebration.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Ronaldo is currently at the World Cup with Portugal and will be hoping to pull out his goal celebration for the national team once more. The forward has endured a frustrating season so far domestically and is facing an uncertain future after criticising club side Manchester United and manager Erik ten Hag in an explosive interview before the competition.
WHAT NEXT FOR RONALDO? The forward will take on Ghana with his Portugal side in the World Cup on Thursday in Qatar.
