After narrowly missing a first-half chance against Bayern Munich on Wednesday, Real Madrid forward Rodrygo lifted up his jersey in frustration.
Underneath, there was another shirt with a message: “Pray for RS”
The shirt was meant to be revealed in a goal celebration, but the Brazil international nonetheless showed his support for his home country amid devastating floods.
Heavy rains have caused widespread flooding in the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul, with officials saying that at least 100 people have been killed so far. A further 128 people are missing, per authorities.
More storms are expected on Wednesday, with more than 230,000 people already displaced by the floods.
Madrid staged a dramatic late comeback to win the second leg 2-1, advancing to the Champions League final by a 4-3 aggregate scoreline.
