C Luo stall is in trouble!
On the evening of April 9, Beijing time, Manchester United lost 0-1 away to Everton, who fought for relegation, in the 32nd round of the Premier League this season. Compared with this "unexpected" defeat, the post-match scene became the focus of attention from all sides - Manchester United's number one star Cristiano Ronaldo hit a small Everton fan who photographed him when he exited the players' tunnel.

Through the videos taken by other fans on social media, it can be clearly seen that C Luo suddenly bent down to make a suspected hitting action when passing through the players' tunnel. According to British media reports, the "victim" of this "fight" is 14-year-old Everton fan Jake, and photos released by the Manchester Evening News and other media show that Jack's mobile phone was broken.

Jack's mother gave an account of the incident in interviews with a number of British media outlets: "After the game, the Manchester United players began to leave. We were right in the players' tunnel and my son was filming them. Seeing that C Luo was examining the injury to his calf, my son aimed at him, but did not say anything. As a result, C Luo suddenly came over, very violently slapped my son's mobile phone, and then left directly. She also revealed that Jack's hand was bruised by Ronaldo. According to British media reports, Jack himself suffers from autism, and C Luo's behavior hurts him a lot.

Perhaps aware of his misbehavior, Ronaldo apologized in a social media post in the early morning hours of April 10, Beijing time, writing: "It's always not easy to control emotions in difficult situations, just like this time. Either way, we must be respectful, patient and set an example for all young people who love to play. I apologize for my behaviour and, if I can, I would like to invite this fan to come to Old Trafford (home of Manchester United) to watch the game as a symbol of fair play and sportsmanship. ”

However, with the media coverage, this incident continues to ferment. Sky Sports said Manchester United had embarked on an internal investigation into the matter. According to the Liverpool Echo, the Liverpool City newspaper where Everton is located, the local police said, "Regarding the attack on the fans in this game, we have contacted Manchester United and Everton. Jack's mother also revealed on social media that she and her child have been in touch with the police, "Who would have thought that this football trip would eventually become a police trip for me and my son." ”
As the most influential football star today, the 37-year-old Ronaldo has been facing the public with a healthy and upward image of sunshine, self-discipline and helping others. However, this time, the Portuguese star's behavior is really inappropriate.
