Voters taking part in the Iranian presidential elections were reportedly sent into a frenzy by the presence of a lookalike bearing a striking resemblance to Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo.
The crowds in Tehran were stirred by Reza Alireza Lou last Friday, per the Mirror's Thomas Bristow, who reported many queued up to meet and take photos with Ronaldo's doppleganger.
Mimicking the look of top world footballers appears to be a rising trend in Iran's capital, too, after a Lionel Messi lookalike also recently took Tehran by storm.
AFP Tehran provided a glimpse at Ronaldo clone Alireza Lou, whose fashion choices even aligned with those that Portugal's captain might make:
