The Portugal superstar appeared in Real Madrid’s 2011 Copa del Rey final against archrivals Barcelona.
Ronaldo had a chance to open the scoring in extra time with the game tied at 0-0, but pulled his attempt wide.
Cameras then turned to the audience and saw Shakira, who was at the time the partner of Blaugrana defender Gerard Pique, giggling.
Ronaldo had to have noticed. Within five minutes, he’d soared over Adriano to head home the game-winning goal.
As Ronaldo wheeled away in delight, Real Madrid’s coaching staff sprang from their seats.
Shakira was then spotted with her hands over her mouth, as if she’d seen a ghost.
Madrid won the competition, which came as a surprise given Pep Guardiola’s spectacular tenure as Barcelona manager.
