It was a historic night for the Eastern European nation who are currently playing in their first Euros.

On their debut, their victory over Portugal set up a last-16 clash with Spain.

But in a classy moment, Georgia winger Kvaratskhelia consoled Ronaldo before he celebrated the victory with his team.

And the video that has now gone viral of the two sharing a heartfelt moment has fans gushing over the Napoli ace.

One fan gushed: “Elite mentality. Humble in victory Gracious in defeat.”

While another added: “Sportsmanship.”

A third said: “THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL.”

Then a fourth added a picture of when Kvaratskhelia met Ronaldo in 2013 when the Portuguese icon opened the Dinamo Tbilisi Academy and captioned the picture as, “What a moment.”

The underdogs Georgia had an underwhelming start to the tournament losing 3-0 to Turkey.

And they were on track to secure three points in their second group game against the Czech Republic after Georges Mikautadze’s spot kick goal.

But Patrik Schick‘s 59th-minute equaliser left Georgia with just one point on the table and fears their debut Euros will be coming to an end.
