Famous Pakistani actor Yumna Zaidi is a football fan who has revealed her love for football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo after witnessing what arguably was the last World Cup match of the great player.
During a break from showbiz, Yumna was in the United States spending time with her family and attended the high profile World Cup match between Portugal and Spain at the stadium.
On the actor’s Instagram page, the actress has posted pictures and videos of the match, revealing that she is not very knowledgeable about football, while playfully stating that her football knowledge is limited to “10 per cent”.
She, however, said the inside of the stadium was “very electric” and thousands of fans’ passion was “very evident.”
She also shared a few clips and images dedicated to Ronaldo during the match in her social media feeds, which also revealed that she’s been an admirer of the Portuguese icon for a long time.
