According to reports from El Mundo Deportivo, Ronaldo called the central referee a “shit coward” after the referee did not whistle the foul by the Argentine defender. This behavior may lead to disciplinary action against the Real Madrid star.
The incident will be reviewed by the technical committee, and the verdict will depend on whether Ronaldo’s words are deemed as insult and contempt. A former referee, speaking on the Spanish show Tiki Taka on Cuatro TV, stated, “The technical committee will study the words of Cristiano Ronaldo and soon deliver its verdict. Everything will depend on whether there is really insult and contempt on the part of the player.”
If the allegations are proven, Ronaldo could face sanctions, potentially impacting Real Madrid, as his performance plays a crucial role in the team’s success.
