Cristiano Ronaldo Investigated for "Anti-Messi" Gesture
Cristiano Ronaldo summoned to testify by the Saudi Arabian Federation's Disciplinary and Ethics Committee following a gesture he made during the match against Al Shabab, an incident that could lead to several suspension matches.
As reported by local media Arriyadiyah, it is claimed that it was the management of the club Ronaldo faced that demanded punishment for the superstar, particularly after a video of the footballer making a gesture around his waist went viral.
According to the footage that circulated worldwide, Cristiano Ronaldo's reaction was triggered by the crowd chanting "Messi".
Now, CR7 will have to explain what happened and could face a two-match suspension, as well as a financial penalty.
