🚨 In 2014, during the FIFA World Cup, Cristiano Ronaldo showed up with a Z shaped haircut and was brutally trolled by the media! 😕💇♂️⬇️
A lot of people made fun of this haircut without knowing the actual reason.. ❌
It was a tribute to Erik Ortiz, a 10 month old child who had surgery for cortical dysplasia which resulted in a scar on his face (Z shaped) for the rest of his life.
His family and friends were trying to raise money to pay for the surgery, which cost around $83,000. However, they weren't able to raise the funds.
They requested Cristiano Ronaldo to donate a pair of cleats and a jersey to auction and raise funds for the treatment.
But when Cristiano Ronaldo heard about this he decided to pay for the entire surgery!👏
