Madeira Airport, Renamed, Gets Footballer Cristiano Ronaldo's Bust



Madeira airport has been named after Cristiano Ronaldo, star of Real Madrid. The man was invited to the opening (with his mother and his girlfriend) and to see the bust of himself.

There's a fantastic photo opportunity. A very striking sculpture. When Ronaldo arrived and after he left children were keen to get selfies with the brass bust.

More on Portugal, Madeira, and places named after famous people in the next posts.
Good photo on the BBC website:
