Cristiano Ronaldo thanked this Thursday for the gesture of solidarity that Liverpool fans offered him, last Tuesday, at Anfield, for the death of one of his children.

The publication includes a video of the minute of applause that Anfield dedicated to Ronaldo during the English league match that pitted his team, Manchester United, against a historic rival like Liverpool.

In the 7th minute, with 1-0 in favor of the locals, thanks to a four-minute goal from Colombian Luis Díaz, people got up from their seats and began to applaud Cristiano, who did not participate in the game. At the same time, while other fans showed the Portuguese shirt on the air, much of Anfield began to chant “You’ll Never Wal Alone”, the exciting anthem of the ‘reds’.
