Anybody see the quotes from Ronaldo this morning? Telling the press he only said it was a foul to the ref and never said it was a red card.
Replays clearly show that the ref had signalled a free kick long before Ronaldo arrived on the scene. Then, seeing the ref had signalled the free kick, (which he continued to do so whilst Ronaldo was speaking) Ronaldo continues to speak in the referee's ear. Besides I thought that FIFA were clamping down on players trying to influence the referee's decision.
The look on Rooney's face just before he pushes Ronaldo prooves for me that Ronaldo only wanted Rooney off. I know Rooney's sending off didn't cost us the result, but it's not what you do to a team mate and friend, Ronaldo deserves all he gets.
