It’s an image that has gone around the world. Criticized by supporters who chanted the name of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo responded to them by miming an obscene gesture during Al-Nassr’s victory against Al-Shabab last weekend (3-2). If his attitude sparked a lively controversy in Saudi Arabia, the former Real Madrid player subsequently tried to justify his celebration.
“It’s not shameful. We do that in Europe,” he declared. As expected, the Portuguese received a one-match suspension from the Saudi federation’s disciplinary and ethics committee for his attitude towards opposing supporters, as relayed by L’Equipe yesterday, Wednesday. The Lusitano international is doing very well.
