Why Ronaldo Couldn't Give Me His Jersey - Osman Bukari Explains After Pulling a 'SIU' During Ghana vs Portugal | Soccer/Soccer

Ghana winger Osman Bukari, who copied Cristiano Ronaldo's 'SIU' celebration, has now revealed how he missed out on the Portugal captain's jersey.

Bukari scored Ghana's second goal in their World Cup opener against Portugal, a match the Black Stars lost 3-2, and then pulled Ronaldo's trademark celebration.

Ronaldo had left the pitch by then after scoring Portugal's opening goal via the penalty spot and Bukari has now explained how his admiration for the former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward saw him ask for his shirt after the match.

“It was the first time seeing Ronaldo physically,” Bukari told Ghana's Sompa FM as quoted by Football Ghana.

“In fact, I was happy when I saw him because I have always watched him on TV. During the warm-up, the first thing I thought off was to see Ronaldo but he came late, later on, I saw him warming up with the Portugal team.”

“[Lionel] Messi, [Kylian] Mbappe and Neymar are players that I have seen physically so I wanted to see Ronaldo at all cost. I approached him and had some talks with him because I needed his jersey but unfortunately for me, I didn't get it.”

“I went to him after the game thinking I will get it but Ronaldo told me one of our players who requested for his jersey through another Portugal player has taken it so he pleaded.”
