India’s batting sensation Virat Kohli had a fan-boy moment when he met Portugal’s football legend Luis Figo for a meal on Monday night.
Figo is in Mumbai to promote Futsal – a five-a-side tournament in India.
Tweeting a picture of himself with the football great, Kohli wrote: With the legend himself @LuisFigo What an absolutely wonderful man #Grateful #FanBoyMoment.
In return, Figo also tweeted a picture of the duo and wrote: Great pleasure to meet @imVkohli the most loved sportsman in India.
The evident mutual respect aside, the tweets are bound to make lots of hearts skip a few beats.
