During the video, Kane is mentioned the names of footballers such as Van Nistelrooy, Zlatan Ibrahimović, Miroslav Klose, Salah, Mbappé, Haaland, Luis Suárez and Lewandowski, but it was when the last three were reached that the Englishman began to get nervous:
“R9 (Ronaldo Fenómeno)?… Lionel Messi?… Cristiano Ronaldo?” asked the interviewer, getting the latter option right.
Upon hearing the name of the Portuguese star with an illustrious past at Real Madrid and Manchester United, Harry blinked, nodded and stated: “Ronnie (Cristiano Ronaldo).”
