Katia Aveiro, the sister of
Cristiano Ronaldo, has lashed out at her brother’s critics following
Wednesday’s red card, accusing them of trying to destroy him, while promising
that justice will be served.
Ronaldo’s European debut in
Juventus colours ended prematurely against Valencia, when he received his
marching orders after just 29 minutes.
The Portugal captain was
sanctioned for grabbing Jeison Murillo’s hair while the Colombian defender was
on the floor, having previously fallen after a clash with Ronaldo.
Ronaldo left the Mestalla
pitch in tears, to watch the rest of the match from the dressing room, as
Juventus triumphed 2-0 thanks to two penalties converted by Miralem Pjanic.
The 33-year-old now faces a
ban from the Champions League group stage, but his sister believes he will
bounce back.
“Football’s shame… justice
will be served.
“They want to destroy my
brother but God never rests. Shameful,” Katia Aveiro wrote on her Instagram
account.
