A child shot towards the midfield area in the 68th minute of Portugal vs. Turkey while the ball was in the deаd ball position. Cristiano Ronaldo was present, and this incredible scene stunneԀ and delighted the 39-year-old superstar. With a happy grin, he welcomed the youngster with open arms and a “selfie” before the “intruder” ran away from the security officers.
It was intriguing to the 61,047 spectators at the Westfalenstadion as well, and they encouraged the child to get away. Although he was really fast, there was too much security at the stadium. He was apprehended and removed from the pitch by those who intercepted him.
“Fortunately, I didn’t get in trouble for it,” Berat, the youngster, said to RTL media. But he was told to get out of the Westfalenstadion right now. UEFA has declared that during EURO 2024, trespassers such as Berat will not be allowed inside any stadium. This indicates that Berat’s tournament is now over.
But Berat doesn’t care about that because his wish to see Ronaldo in person has come true. “It’s a wonderful sensation, and ever then, I’ve been beaming with happiness. My dream has come true, so I’m not sure if I can sleep,” Berat exclaimed with excitement.
“As a huge follower of Ronaldo, I had the notion to break into the stadium in January when my dad verified that he had bought a ticket. I also told my buddies before the game that I was going to run out onto the pitch to meet Ronaldo.
Nobody thought I could accomplish it, much less that I would,” the young player for KSV’s U11 squad said. Hessen Kassel went on, “I pretended to be going to the pоtty in the stands, so I went to the front row on the touchline and waited for the appropriate opportunity. Everyone knows what happened next: I ran inside. It was wonderful to watch him nod and even give me a head pat.”
Berat claims that a lot of people questioned him about how it felt to take a picture with Ronaldo. Some even inquired as to the Portuguese superstar’s scent. Regretfully, I was ignorant. I couldn’t smell anything at the moment,” Berat remarked.
Berat’s dad remained concerned. He expressed his certainty that his son was using the loo. “Then suԀԀenly I saw him climbing into the area behind the technical area and running onto the pitch,” he said. “I was very worried when my son was caught, but thank God he was released.” In addition, Berat’s father promised to stop letting their son run onto the pitch. “For each ticket, I lost eight hundred euros. I was terrifieԀ that Berat would be found and that I would have to pay a big fee. Fortunately, UEFA did not penalise anyone. Perhaps it was because he was too little for them to notice. So, we were at ease as we travelled the 160 miles from Dortmund to Kassel.”
