ONE unlucky fan injured himself and had to go to hospital after copying Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic celebration.
Like his idol, Ronaldo, the fan buried his penalty and wheeled away in celebration.
But as he tried to land after copying Ronaldo’s iconic celebration, his left knee buckled and he collapsed to the floor.
The injury resulted in a trip to the hospital, and the fan could be seen grinning as he was carted down a hallway.
He was then put on a scanner, and for his bravery he was rewarded with what looks like a beer and pizza.
Responding to the viral video from March that has resurfaced, a Twitter user said: “He barely jumped smh. At least he scored siuuuu.”

Another said: “I’ve never seen a human being buckle like that.”
Ronaldo would’ve been proud of the penalty but not the execution of the celebration.
Although, the 37-year-old might be a little rusty with it the next time he nets.
Ronaldo has only managed to score one goal for Man Utd this season.
