On Thursday, soccer icon Cristiano Ronaldo posted a picture of himself in training to his Instagram profile, captioning it “unstoppable.”
This Portuguese footballer, who plays for the Saudi Arabian team “Al-Nasr,” was given a one-game suspension for making offensive gestures toward the crowd during the previous game.
Ronaldo has been suspended by the Saudi Arabian Football Federation for his impolite reaction to Lionel Messi’s taunts from Al-Shabaab supporters.
He was found guilty of inciting fans during the 3-2 victory over Al-Nasr the previous weekend after he was accused of striking his ear and pushing his palm forward in the vicinity of his pelvis.
The 39-year-old will not be able to appeal the ruling, according to SAFF’s Disciplinary and Ethics Committee, and he will thus be unable to play in today’s home match against Al-Hazm.
