Portuguese football star Cristiano Ronaldo stuck it to Lazio fans after his team's defeat in the Supercoppa on Sunday with one simple, but rather rude gesture, that was captured on a video.

In the footage that has gone viral, supporters of the Rome-based club are heard chanting "Messi, Messi!" in an apparent attempt to hurt Ronaldo's feelings as Lionel Messi, the famous Argentinian footballer, currently has more Ballon d’Or awards than CR7; the annual award is given to the best association football player.

​These chants, however, didn't phase the football legend, who taunted them by grabbing his crotch.

This year hasn't been a good one for the Portuguese football player, who scored fewer goals in 2019 than in any other year this decade.
