Tough days for Cristiano Ronaldo. It’s not like he molested his cat like Kourt Zouma, but it’s similar. We say similar, because even thou he essentially slapped a 14-year old autistic boy by the hand and smashed his phone, nobody started a campaign asking Manchester United to cut him from the squad, like all animal welfare NGO’s did after the Frenchman from West Ham kicked his cat. But, the reactions for his behavior are still echoing in the British media. And after offering his apology to the young Jake Harding on his Instagram account, and inviting him to a game at Old Trafford, Manchester United forward got the response from the boy’s mother, which essentially reads: apology not accepted.The mother of the 14-year-old who was the victim of Cristiano Ronaldo’s ‘phone slap’ says Manchester United have handled the situation “terribly” and “just made things even worse”. pic.twitter.com/0SluFTDwVJ— GOAL News (@GoalNews) April 12, 2022 Sarah Kelly talked to the British media and revealed that she was contacted by the club and a representative of Ronaldo after the incident, but was not satisfied with the response from either and added that it just made things worsted. She also revealed that they won’t be travelling to Old Trafford.„I asked him, ‘Would you like to go? Ronaldo said we could go see United’ He replied: “No mom, I never want to see him again”. This is worrying because Ronaldo was one of the reasons that made him want to go and see the United game. I think it was impolite to say you apologized when you didn’t. Okay, posted a social media post, but I should have apologized to my son. He had several hours to ponder. He should have looked for our contacts… To be discreet, to have said that he had spoken to us. If anyone did what he did in the street, he would be arrested and interrogated. He’s a father himself, and I’m sure that if he were a normal person who took his son to a Saturday afternoon game, and that happened, he would also be very upset and shocked” the mother said to The Telegraph.22.00: (5.00) Atl.Madrid (3.50) Man.City (1.85) As a result of Ronaldo’s actions, one of England’s leading children’s charities „Save The Children“ has decided that the Portuguese is no longer one of its ambassadors, according to The Sun. And attacks are coming from all sides, and one of them is from former Liverpool and Newcastle full back Jose Enrique, while the other is from his old foe, Antonio Cassano.“I always said I didn’t like him. Ronaldo believes that he is God and that he can do whatever he wants. I’m not saying he’s not one of the best players in football history, but as a person I don’t like him” said Enrique on his Twitter account after the incident with a boy and his phone.’Ronaldo texted me and asked me to show some respect’On the other hand, Cassano continued to criticize Ronaldo as a player, something he is doing for years now, especially after he revealed that the player himself sent him SMS asking him to stop and show some respect. This time, he compared him with Karim Benzema, his former teammate in Real Madrid, who provided 43 assists for Ronaldo during their nine years in the same team.”Ronaldo should pray in the morning and say: ‘thank you Benzema, for playing with you’. Ronaldo scores and will always score, but it’s different. Benzema is a central striker, but he’s also a ‘Zidane’, he’s a 9, he’s a 10, a 9 and a half” Cassano said on a Twitch channel.
