After two months warming the bench and nursing an injured ankle, Cristiano Ronaldo finally got out on the field Saturday with a vengeance!
What a comeback!
Crissy scored the final goal of the night, leading his team, Real Madrid, to a victory, 4-2. That little bit of sports trivia is in no way as interesting to us as what happened next.
In celebration of his big win and first goal since coming back from his injury, Crissy ripped his shirt off! Now THAT is something to celebrate.
However, some prude or blind referee made an example of Crissy and gave him a yellow card for his actions. Seriously?
Crissy released this statement shortly after the game:
“Taking off my shirt was an instinctive reaction. I know that I made a mistake but I’m human. I didn’t want to do it. These are things that happen in football and I hope to learn from them. I’ve apologised to my team-mates.”
If these kinds of things happened more often in football, more people might be tuning in to watch!
