'I say it from the bottom of my heart': Toni Kroos reacts to Saudi crowd booing him during Supercopa

"I noticed the boos [during the Supercopa], but when you're focused on the game, you don't realise it. But then I noticed that it was only for me," Toni Kroos has said for Einfach mal Luppen podcast.

"I can genuinely say from the bottom of my heart that it did not bother me while playing. I found it quite funny," he added.

Kroos was the only Real Madrid player booed by the Saudi crowd during the tournament. This was their reaction to the German calling a Spanish talent's move to Al Ahli 'embarrassing'.

The 34-year-old responded in style – not only by winning both games but also by mocking the local fans on X after the first semifinal. Toni was also smiling while leaving the pitch to the whistles during the final.
