Old footage shows Cristiano Ronaldo arriving in Germany, not in Indonesia
The post contains a video showing the footballer getting off a plane in a suit and two pictures of him at the airport.
Local media reported a health foundation named Yayasan Graha Kasih Indonesia claimed the Al Nassr star was scheduled to arrive in the city on February 18 (archived link). On February 19, authorities in East Nusa Tenggara province said the visit has not yet been confirmed (archived link).
Similar videos have also been shared on TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube, racking up more than 13,000 views.
But the video does not show Ronaldo's arrival in the country.
A Google reverse image search found a longer version of the video published on the verified TikTok account of sports channel Sky Sports on June 14, 2024 (archived link).
German-language text on the video and the post's caption both say it shows Ronaldo and his teammates arriving in Germany. The post's caption also includes the "EURO2024" hashtag.
Photo agency Getty Images also published the two pictures seen in the false video on June 13, 2024, credited to UEFA photographer Christof Koepsel (archived links here and here).
"Cristiano Ronaldo is seen during the Portugal national football team arrival ahead of the UEFA EURO 2024 in Germany at Munster Osnabrueck Airport on June 13, 2024 in Greven, Germany," the pictures' captions said.AFP has previously debunked other false claims about Ronaldo that spread in Indonesia.

Rude couple bans bartender from putting out ‘tacky' tip jar at wedding: ‘I would be horrified if you asked my guests for tips'
It's pretty standard to leave a cash tip for bartenders at weddings — especially if it's an open bar. However, a young bartender named Hannah Borsenik revealed in a TikTok video — captioned 'This labor isn't, free people' — that she supposedly was 'not allowed' by a couple to put out a tip jar at their wedding that she was working. This video said so much — yet so little at the same time, but enough to spark a fierce debate on tipping at weddings in the comment section. 'I wouldn't want my guests to feel obligated to spend any money at my wedding either… that's tacky,' one commenter fired. The bride and groom supposedly banned the bartender from having a tip jar — something she usually always puts out at weddings. Daniel Jíâ¢dzura – Another comment brought up a good point: 'The couple should be tipping you not the guests.' 'Gratuity was included in the contract. Don't lie. Asking guests to tip is tacky,' judged someone else. Borsenik felt compelled to post a follow-up video in response to the thousands of opinionated comments she received on her original video. 'I get an hourly wage from the venue. The bride and groom are not hiring me to be a private bartender at their wedding, so that's why I usually have a tip jar… I don't get gratuity in my hourly wage,' she explained. @hannyb11 Replying to @Patricia Mcauley Clearing all of the controversy up!! ♬ original sound – hannyb '…I'm not signing a contract. I just work for the venue and the bride and groom just said I couldn't have a tip jar.' Of course, commenters had something to say about Borsenik's explanation, too. 'The person paying for the event should tip you at the end of the night. I would be horrified if you asked my guests for tips,' quipped one person. It seems that some couples don't want their guests to feel compelled to tip at weddings. laurine – Another person defended the young bartender: 'I'm sorry even if you got paid via the bride and groom, I do not care. Make that money. If people want to tip they will and if people don't want to, they won't.' Some Gen Z couples are avoiding this scenario altogether by throwing dry weddings and cash bars, defending the move as far from tacky and calling guests who complain 'entitled.' Rather than free-flowing booze, these couples prioritize transparency and budget-conscious celebrations, sparking heated arguments online about what it really means to be a gracious host. In a culture where wedding norms are evolving, debates over who should tip — or if tip jars even belong — are only getting louder. But one thing's clear: when it comes to weddings, money and manners remain a delicate dance.
