Cristiano Ronaldo has been fined £50,000 and handed a two-match suspension by the Football Association for his retaliation after Manchester United’s defeat to Everton last season, when he knocked a fan’s mobile phone to the ground.
The 37-year-old has been charged with ‘improper and/or violent’ conduct by the FA following the incident last April.
An FA statement said: “Cristiano Ronaldo has been suspended for two matches, fined £50,000 and warned as to his future conduct for a breach of FA Rule E3.
“The forward admitted that his conduct after the final whistle of the Premier League game between Manchester United FC and Everton FC on Saturday 9 April 2022 was improper.
“An independent Regulatory Commission found that his conduct was both improper and violent during a subsequent hearing, and imposed these sanctions.”
Ronaldo is no longer a United player, so the suspension won’t apply to us, after having his contract terminated this week.
So sad!!!!!
Unbelievable
