Real Madrid star, Cristiano Ronaldo enjoyed an emotional reunion with Polish fan David Pawlaczyc at the team’s Warsaw hotel yesterday.

David hit headlines in 2014 when he was roused from a coma after listening to a replay of Ronaldo scoring a goal.

The youngster, who had been knocked off his bike by a car in August 2013, awoke after a specialist suggested playing a recording of the moment when Ronaldo netted his third goal for Portugal in a World Cup play-off against Sweden

He was then invited by the forward to a Champions League game at the Santiago Bernabeu in 2014, where he watched the match from a VIP box.

Madrid posted a photograph yesterday of Ronaldo and David, along with his family, who had driven six hours to visit the team’s hotel in Warsaw.

Ronaldo, whose side face Legia in a Champions League clash, signed merchandise after posing for pictures.
