Cristiano Ronaldo cheered vehemently, as Juventus won 3-0 at home against Atlético Madrid in the Champions League ottendedelsfinale.
And maybe also a tad too vehemently.
The union of European Football associations (UEFA) announces on Monday that it has opened disciplinary proceedings against Ronaldo.
It must be examined whether Ronaldo showed “inappropriate behavior” in his scene of jubilation last week in Turin.
Ronaldo celebrated the victory and his hat-trick with an obscene gesture that was supposed to be a reply to Atlético coach Diego Simeones scene of jubilation in the first ottendedelsfinale in Madrid.
Simeone had at the Spanish 2-0-goal turned against his hjemmepublikum and taken to the next step.
increasing the argentinian explained that he would illustrate his courage during the fight.
On the somewhat same shape had Ronaldo gestikuleret with the hands in the direction of his own steps, as the Juventus sent the spaniards out of the tournament in the second leg.
Simeone got a fine of 150,000 kronor for its controversial cheers, but he left for the quarantine. In the worst case can UEFA choose to punish the kinds of incidents with quarantine.
Ronaldo’s three goals contributed considerably to Juventus and went on to the quarterfinals with an overall 3-2 victory.
UEFA informs, that the disciplinary committee deals with Ronaldo’s case on Thursday.
Juventus will meet Ajax in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Ronaldo has scored 124 goals in 160 premier League matches in his career. It is the most objective of all. In addition, he has won the tournament five times.
