In the 16th minute of Tuesday's 4-0 win over Getafe, Ronaldo cleared a ball into the stands that smacked an unfortunate fan in the first row right in the face.

The guy got a bloody nose and probably wasn't the most comfortable man in the stadium for the rest of the match.

But after the the game was over, the Portuguese player apologised personally and gave him a shirt and took a picture with him.

"I didn't mean to hit him," Ronaldo said later. "I just wanted to clear the ball. I wish to apologize."
