Cristiano Ronaldo picks himself up and gets back to business in Serie A against promoted Frosinone on Sunday after his return to Spain in the Champions League ended in a tearful sending off against Valencia.He was upset and he needs time to calm down. He needs to rise above it and focus on Sunday, even if these things leave a bitter taste in the mouth. #Stay Strong Hero 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

I don't know why all the Ronaldo fans are saying, the referee is wrong, we always saw Ronaldo dive & earn a penalty & even the player sent off , everyone said it's a foul & deserved a red card. my question is supposed that the guy who Ronaldo pull his hair did the same thing to Ronaldo & he was sent off, all these peoples saying that it's not a red will say it's a red card because he pulled ronaldo's hair, my bros football have rules & nobody is above the rules period, straight red card is three match ban & anything less than this is not fair.
