It is okay if he doesn’t own the night to his name but his kind gesture during the match won the hearts of many. Twitter is flooded with the tweets for Ronaldo’s heartwarming gesture for Edison Cavani. Cavani scored twice and Cristiano Ronaldo none, giving Uruguay a 2-1 victory over Portugal on Saturday at the World Cup. On the same day, Lionel Messi was sent home in Argentina's loss, the other "GOAT" at this tournament was also eliminated.

It was two weeks ago that Ronaldo scored a hat-trick in the same stadium against Spain, stroking his chin after the first goal to imply he was the "greatest of all time."

While the five-time Ballon d’Or winner failed to emerge as the star of the night, his heart-warming gesture during the match won many hearts.

Edison Cavani was struggling to continue after a severe calf pain just after the hour mark and when it became evident that the PSG star could not continue, Ronaldo rushed to help his opponent.

The Portugal captain put his arm around Cavani and guided him towards Fernando Muslera’s goal off the pitch after which the Uruguay staff took over.

Ronaldo's Supporters present at the Sochi stadium applauded  Ronaldo for his warm gesture while Twitterati was also quick to praise the Real Madrid talisman for his great sportsmanship. 

He proved once again that for becoming a star you don’t need to play well all the time, you can also be a star with being what you are in a real sense.
