Real Madrid legend Cristiano Ronaldo has taken to social media, to issue a simple response to the gesture sent his way by Kylian Mbappé.
Frontman Mbappé of course grabbed the headlines across world football once more on Saturday evening.
This came upon the Frenchman etching his name into the history books at Real Madrid.
After finding the net in a 2-0 La Liga victory over Sevilla, Mbappé levelled Cristiano Ronaldo as the Blancos player with the most-ever goals in a single calendar year (59).
The 27-year-old celebrated his achievement by paying tribute to CR7, making use of the Portuguese’s iconic ‘SIUUU’ celebration.
Mbappé, post-match, then posted a photo of as much to his official Instagram account.
And as alluded to above, quick to take to the comments was none other than Cristiano Ronaldo himself.
As showcased in the screenshot (via Madrid Xtra) below, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner responded to Mbappé with a pair of emojis:
