§ Cristiano Ronaldo Dos Santos Aveiros - World's Number One Player §   

I just wrote about the 100th goals of Wayne Rooney and went back to see the second half and guess what? Just now, at the 69th minute Ronaldo gets a red card for a very very foolish thing; he pushed the ball, coming from a corner, with his hands. Yes, his 2 hands. He claims that he was pushed, but when you watch the replay, you will see that there is clearly nothing. It was just a drama by Cristiano Ronaldo and this ended him with a foolish red card.

I have been very frustrated with Cristiano Ronaldo in this match. He was not in his form nor in mood. All his passes were lame. And the red card confirms his off-mood today. Well this is a bad thing for us Ronaldo fans, but definitely a big frustration too to find C.Ronaldo doing such stupid behaviours, because if he just put his head this was a going to be an obvious goal.
