LOL! This Ronaldo statue is getting such a slagging on social media
Life has got to be pretty good for Cristiano Ronaldo.
He's worth too many millions to count, has an esteemed sporting career, and he just got an airport named after him. Isn't is well for some?
However, it seems that not everything is blessed in Ronaldo's life, if the awkward photos of him standing beside an honorary piece of art are anything to go by.

The footballer was commemorated with a bronze bust of himself in his namesake airport, but the bust left a lot to be desired in the realism department.
The bust really doesn't resemble the dashingly handsome Portuguese player, and Twitter has been completely taking the p*** out of it.

The bust has been likened to everything from Sloth from The Goonies to an actual sloth.
Some have also claimed that it more fittingly resembles former Irish footballer Niall Quinn or the stone bust puppet from childhood TV show Art Attack.

The internet is in a complete photoshop frenzy, as people attempt to manipulate Ronaldo's face to match the bust.
Ronaldo has yet to comment on the online reaction to the bust, and the hashtag #RonaldoBust is still going strong.
By far the best joke I read about the #RonaldoBust was "someone did a Messi job"
