Already beloved, Ronaldo won even more hearts today when he said, “It doesn’t matter about culture or religions, because we are all the same” – and the crowd went absolutely wild.

He did an Instagram Live from the Expo site and millions of viewers tuned in.

The humble footballer said he didn’t expect to see such crowds, and told the people that they are his motivation to continue.
