Cristiano Ronaldo shows his class with brilliant gesture to Manchester United midfielder

Cristiano Ronaldo showed his class on Saturday night with a brilliant gesture to Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic.

The former United forward was on the score sheet again for Portugal over the weekend as his country defeated Serbia 4-2 in their Euro qualification match.

Matic played the entire 90 minutes of the match for Serbia but was unable to guide them to a shock win as the reigning European champions left with all three points.

After the match Matic, his son and his son's friend all waited in the tunnel to meet the Juventus forward and it was well worth the wait for the trio.

As the Portuguese forward left the changing room he was met by United midfielder Matic who then introduced the two youngsters to the five time Ballon d'Or winnner.

The 34-year-old then high-fived each of the children before taking his time to chat with them and posing for a picture which Matic took.

The moment was captured on video by an onlooker and fans loved to see the glimpse of arguably the best footballer in history taking his time for his supporters.
