The two he added on Saturday has brought him to seven after just four matches.Another occurrence outside of football that also happened yesterday, much less positive than Pogba dancing, was the airplane that flew across the Manchester sky just as the Portuguese ace stepped on the grass of the Theatre of Dreams.#BelieveKathrynMayorga https://t.co/RkszyjcF2F pic.twitter.com/rN6IxNPXD9— DFWM 🇰🇪.🇵🇸.🇳🇬 (@ShikuKatun) September 11, 2021 ‘Believe Kathryn Mayorga’ read the banner that was dragged by the aircraft, bringing everyone’s attention to the ongoing legal case regarding rape allegations.Shortly after the Portuguese star’s entrance, a plane, organised by feminist campaign group Level Up, circled Old Trafford for much of the first half.The 37-year-old Kathryn Mayorga reported a rape allegation in the hours after meeting Ronaldo in Las Vegas during June 2009 when CR7 swapped Manchester for Madrid.’The football world remains silent over the claims whilst it fawns over Ronaldo’s return to Manchester United’, Level Up said in their yesterday’s statement.’One of the world’s most famous athletes has been accused of rape, but there has been almost universal silence about it,’ said Janey Starling, co-director of Level Up.Ronaldo scores a brace against Newcastle in his Manchester debut’Manchester United have not acknowledged that there are unresolved rape allegations against Ronaldo and are giving him a hero’s welcome. ‘As a society, we can’t let a woman’s story of rape be silenced.
