The son of the Syrian refugee tripped by a Hungarian journalist accompanied Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo onto the pitch before the team's La Liga win over Granada on Saturday.
Madrid invited Osama Abdul Mohsen and sons Zaid and Mohammad to the match, which Madrid won 1-0.
Zaid accompanied Ronaldo when the teams entered the pitch before kick-off and received applause from the Bernabeu crowd.
Before the match, the players wore T-shirts supporting the thousands of refugees fleeing to Europe from the war in Syria.
Mohsen had arrived in the capital earlier in the week after a Spanish football academy offered to help them rebuild their life.
Images of him being tripped by the Hungarian journalist provoked outrage across the continent, and this month Madrid donated 1m euros to help refugees arriving to Spain.
