LEGENDARY right-back Dani Alves was BOOED by his own fans every time he touched the ball just a month into his UNAM Pumas career.
Alves, 39, joined Mexican side Pumas this summer following his release from Barcelona.
However, the most decorated footballer of all time is enduring a horror start to life in North America.
Alves was booed every time he touched the ball against Santos Laguna.
The Brazil ace was also lucky not to receive a red card for a high challenge.
Alves was also at fault for one of Laguna's five goals in the 5-1 away win.

Alves has, however, chipped in with two assists for his new side.
Despite his love for Barca being unconditional, Alves' exit wasn't so smooth.
The full-back told The Guardian that Barca bosses "don’t care about the people who made history".
He said: "This club has sinned in recent years. Barcelona doesn’t care about the people who made history for the club.
"As a cule [Barcelona fan], I would like the club to do things differently. I’m not talking about myself because my situation was another scenario.
"I left happy to have returned to Barcelona. I dreamed for five years wanting to live this second moment. The only thing I didn’t like was how my departure was handled.
"Since I arrived, I made it very clear that I wasn’t any more a 20-year-old guy and that I wanted things to be done head-on, without hiding things.
"I am eternally grateful to Xavi and the president for bringing me back. I found a club full of young people with incredible ideas on the pitch.
"But it needs to improve the work outside the field. The mindset is totally opposite to what we built a few years ago.
"Everything that happens on the field is a reflection of what happens outside.

"Football is more balanced, it’s a collective game. And that has been left out at the club."
