A statue of Cristiano Ronaldo that was widely mocked has been replaced.
The mocked bust of the football superstar at the Madeira Airport, the airport in his home island, has been replaced.
Some compared its likeness to former Republic of Ireland captain Niall Quinn. Sculptor Emanuel Santos said his work was just "a matter of taste".
According to Madeira Island News, Ronaldo's family made the request through the CR7 Museum for the replacement.
