Cristiano Ronaldo gets a robot to smile when he gives her a kiss in a new advert. Ronaldo moved in after Sophia winked and told him: “You’re better than I thought you’d be.” “You’re the football player with most fans in the world.
“On Instagram you have 122 million followers, you’ve won five Ballons d’Or, two FIFA awards and scored 636 goals.”
After bragging she’s “very intelligent” Cristiano challenges her to repeat his famous goal-scoring shout, although he stays sat in his chair rather than getting up to jump, twirl and plant his feet with his hands by his side to complete the move.
The result is far from the real thing – showing Sophia needs a bit more programming from her makers to really pull it off if the two stars of the human and robot world meet up again in the future.
The star was shooting a commercial for Portuguese telecoms firm MEO.
