Cristiano Ronaldo was accused this Friday by the Football Association, the governing body of English football, of “inappropriate and/or violent” behavior in the case of him throwing the mobile phone of a fan who was filming it at the end of the game. .
“It is alleged that the striker’s behavior after the final whistle was inappropriate and/or violent,” the Football Association note, quoted by English media, reads.
The episode took place in April after Manchester United lost to Everton. The moment was recorded and widely shared.
The Portugal international even apologized via a social media post. “It is never easy to deal with emotions in difficult times like the one we are going through. However, we must always be respectful and patient and set an example for all young people who love football,” he wrote.
