Today's match for CR against Valladolid saw the former United star involved in some petulant outbursts which have marred his time at RM. Valladolid outplayed los Blancos in the first half and were very unlucky to be down 0-2 at Halftime. In the first half, CR had the ball picked from him on almost every occasion. The frustration, which would normally subside after a goal (he scored on a freekick), did not go away. In the second half he was constantly diving (as were his teammates). He was stepped on by an opposition player and his leg was bloodied. He rolled three times on the ground as if he'd been picked off by a sniper in the upper deck. He should be used to the kicks...he got rough treatment in the EPL every week, which is by far a more physical league than the creampuff La Liga. Indignant after no action from the ref (who didn't see it as play was continuing), he kicked out at another player and insulted an assistant linesman after the second goal. The coach of Valladolid had these words for CR:
Onesimo Sanchez, coach of Valladolid, was very angry with Cristiano Ronaldo for his attitude during the game: "Theirs has been a police court. He insulted the assistant after the second goal and has kicked out from the ground ... That's what I've seen. For some reason there is always one (card) for some but not for others. We can not justify these things because of how handsome and rich one is."
Sanchez had a suggestion for RM:
"A Real player lacked character today (CR). The number seven for that team (Raul, cpt.) should give lessons and not just with the ball. (humility, I suppose)
On the other hand, CR's hair looked nice today. He looked very mature...too bad his play wasn't.
