A move to Iran to confront Ronaldo backfired due to a single error.
Cristiano Ronaldo couldn't contain his excitement as he celebrated scoring for Al-Nassr. It was yet another successful game for the Portuguese icon, but little did he know that his presence had caused quite a stir for another player.

Thievy Bifouma, a former Premier League player, had always dreamt of playing against Ronaldo. However, fate had other plans for him. Bifouma's career had taken him to various countries, from Spain to China, but he had never had the chance to play against the legend himself. That is until Iranian club Esteghlal approached him with an offer to play against Al-Nassr in the AFC Champions League.

Bifouma, now 32 years old and nearing the end of his career, saw this as his last chance to fulfill his sporting ambition. He eagerly signed the paperwork and arrived in Iran, ready to face off against Ronaldo. But as he soon found out, he had made a rather unfortunate mistake.

Despite reviewing the game calendar, Bifouma had mistakenly signed for a smaller team with the same first name as Esteghlal FC. The team he had actually signed for was Esteghlal Khuzestan, and they were not scheduled to play against Al-Nassr. It was a comedic error that left Bifouma feeling quite embarrassed.

"I had no idea there were two teams named Esteghlal in Iran," Bifouma later admitted. Even his countryman Gael Kakuta, who had called to check on him, couldn't resist teasing him about the mix-up. But Bifouma didn't let this setback dampen his spirits. He had already settled in nicely at his new club and had even scored three goals in his first ten league games.

In a twist of fate, Bifouma's new team had a game against Esteghlal FC, the team he had originally thought he was joining. And on his debut, he scored a goal that helped his team secure a 1-0 win. It was a sweet victory for Bifouma, who had been disappointed about not being able to play against Ronaldo.

Despite the mix-up, Bifouma has no regrets about joining Esteghlal Khuzestan. He has found a new home and is enjoying his time with the team. And who knows, maybe one day he will get the chance to face off against Ronaldo, but for now, he is content with his new team and the adventures that come with playing football around the world.
