As a player who thrives in the limelight, Cristiano Ronaldo had the football world fully focused on him as he took to the field sporting a headband this week. Did you see it?
Juventus took on Atletico Madrid in a UEFA Champions League group stage match on Tuesday night, a team Ronaldo boasts quite the record against.
In his career so far, the Portuguese has scored 25 goals in 31 appearances against Diego Simeone's charges. Earlier this week, however, it was Paulo Dybala who proved to be the difference in Juve's slender 1-0 win over Atleti.

Ronaldo made sure he didn't go unnoticed in the tie as he sported a headband on the night. As expected, social media reacted vigorously, with many feeling that there was no need for him to wear the accessory, which he also sported while on duty for Portugal in the latest international break.
With Ronaldo seemingly turning into a banter magnet in the process, here's how social media reacted to his new look.
