Cristiano Ronaldo‘s son was seen watching from the stands as Real Madrid dominated Barcelona in El Clasico on Sunday evening.

The youngster, no doubt supporting his father’s former side, looked to be heavily invested in the game as he watched intently.

Fans surrounding him were soon aware and began filming the 13-year-old.

His father was also seen entering the ground but managed to avoid the cameras as the game went on. 

Vinicius Jr scored a hat-trick in the first half as Real Madrid were crowned Spanish Super Cup champions after a 4-1 demolition of bitter rivals Barcelona in Saudi Arabia on Sunday.

Real dominated every aspect of the game and toyed with last year’s champions who could not handle Vinicius and ended the contest with 10 men after defender Ronald Araujo was sent off for a second booking in the 71st minute after two fouls on the Brazilian. 

Ronaldo Jr and his father will have left with smiles on their faces after watching th demolition. 

‘I didn’t expect us to score three so soon, but we took advantage of their high defensive line with an inspired Vinicius tonight,’ Real manager Carlo Ancelotti told Movistar Plus.

‘It was a difficult match, the result seems too much for the way Barcelona played. At 3-1 it was even. At 4-1 they dropped their arms a bit. We are happy.’

Ancelotti was being kind to Barca who could have suffered an even bigger defeat after a dismal second half in which they didn’t record a single shot on target.

The loss will increase the pressure on Barca manager Xavi, who has faced criticism from fans and media who are unhappy with the team’s form.

They sit fourth in the LaLiga standings on 41 points, eight behind leaders Girona and seven adrift of second-placed Real Madrid.
