When Cristiano Ronaldo was beaten at the Euro 2020 knockouts, he throws his captain’s armband on the floor.
Which was later picked by a local firefighter near him, as seen in this video.
Djordje Vukicevic, who picked it up auctioned it for 64,000 euros, to raise money for the six-month-old Serbian boy who is suffering from spinal muscular atrophy.

The child needs 2.5 million euros for the treatment, and the armband has helped the family get a good amount of funding for the baby’s treatment.
