Champions League final viewers bemused by Ronaldo's new hair
As one of the most successful footballers in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo has access to the finest stylists and hairdressers money can buy.
And yet, fans watching the Champions League Final in Kiev last night admitted they couldn't concentrate on the action - because the 33-year-old's new 'do' was simply too distracting.
The Real Madrid football star showed off the quirky new look for the huge match - but left fans tittering on Twitter.
Ronaldo appeared to have added frosted blonde tips to his new curling brunette locks as he took to the pitch in the nerve-jangling match, which saw Real Madrid defeat Liverpool 3-1 at full-time.

Meanwhile, on the pitch, Liverpool fans were left devastated last night as two horrendous goalkeeping errors by Loris Karius gifted Real Madrid their 3-1 victory.
Karius gifted Madrid their first goal after throwing the ball directly into the path of Madrid striker Karim Benzema.
Sadio Mane equalised four minutes later, but Gareth Bale restored the Madrid lead with a spectacular overhead kick, with little over half an hour remaining.
With five minutes left on the clock, Karius made a second blunder, this time from Bale, by palming the Welsh wizard's long range shot into the back of his own net.
The young keeper apologized for his mistakes last night amid exasperated criticism. He told Talk Sport: 'I don't feel anything right now. Today I lost my team the game and I feel sorry for everyone.'
