The Islamic State terrorist group (ISIS) have been using football players as part of their latest propaganda campaign targeting next summers World Cup which will be staged in Russia.

After using the likes of Leo Messi, Neymar or Didier Deschamps in previous on-line mock-ups, the Real Madrid striker Cristiano Ronaldo is the latest footballer to have been used by the group.

The unpleasant visual of the player is accompanied with the message: "Our words are what you see not what you hear. So just you wait, we are waiting too".
