During the recent charity match featuring football legend Ronaldinho, there was a classy act from TikTok star Khaby Lame who helped a pitch invader in getting his jersey autographed by the Brazilian icon. Just as the fan was about to approach Ronaldinho, he was stopped by security and it appeared like his efforts had been useless until Khaby rushed to his aid.
Lame, one of the most popular stars on TikTok, who has over 160 million followers on the social media platform was part of Ronaldinho’s squad for ‘The Beautiful Game’ charity match in Orlando.
The opposing team’s captain was another Brazilian icon, Roberto Carlos and several more A-list athletes played in the exhibition game.
With so many stars on the pitch, there is always the possibility of pitch invaders stepping on to meet their idols and the same thing occurred during Ronaldinho and Carlos’ charity game.
Before the match began, a young fan jumped security and ran onto the field, attempting to approach Ronaldinho, but his attempts were stopped by security. The fan was caught and dragged away as he looked on desperately towards his idol.

The fan ended up throwing his jersey at Ronaldinho as the stewards rushed the pitch invader to the sidelines. Lame then came to the fan’s aid by picking up the jersey and personally asking Ronaldinho to sign it before running the length of the pitch and handing the shirt to the pitch invader, who exploded in joy.
