The Mohsen family are refugees from Syria who found themselves making headlines around the world after footage of a Hungarian news reporter tripping them up went viral. 

An incredible couple of days since then has seen them end up in Spain, where Zaid's favourite football team Real Madrid have been welcoming the family to Europe. 

Part of that include Zaid getting the opportunity to walk out with his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, as the mascot for their game against Granada this weekend.

Uosama, Zaid and Mohammad Mohsen also got to visit the famous stadium earlier in the week and were shown around by Real Madrid president Florentino Perez, getting to see the club's trophy collection, the dressing rooms and even visit some of the players at the training ground.
