Horan cast a wave at the crowd, who could be seen applauding and waving back as the camera panned over them.
Lyrics from Capaldi's new tune Wish You The Best - set to appear on his upcoming album - played over the footage as the on-screen caption joked: 'Niall Horan stealing the spotlight at your show'.
The camera then panned back to the two as Capaldi took a snap of Horan for his BeReal - the social media app which sees users take a photo at a random point in the day to show what they're up to.
Horan stood still for the camera with his thumbs up for a few moments as Capaldi himself grinned wide-eyed at his front camera.
After the photo was taken, the pair briefly embraced again as Horan gave a final wave to the crowd, before trotting off the stage with a smile on his face.
Capaldi's heartwarming video has since received over 132,000 likes and more than 850 comments from fans who were left touched by the duo's friendship.
One person wrote: 'It brings tears to my eyes to see your face light up when you see your friend. You deserve that happiness.'

Capaldi will be hoping to recreate the success of his debut album, Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, which became the best selling album of 2019 and 2020 in the UK.
