On April 11, Beijing time, Sarah Kelly, the mother of Everton small fan Harding who was attacked by C Ronaldo, was interviewed by The Telegraph. In the interview, Kelly said that it has been 1 day since the incident, and C Luo still has not apologized to Harding in person.
After slapping the mobile phones of small fans, Ronaldo issued a public apology for the first time after the game, and invited Harding to see the ball at Old Trafford. But after such official rhetoric, the Portuguese superstar did not take any concrete action to further apologize.
Kelly said disapprovingly: "Apologizing or not apologizing irritates me even more." I thought: 'It's rude – you told everyone you apologized, but you didn't.' Well, you've posted on social media, but you should apologize to my son in person. He (Ronaldo) spent hours thinking about it. He should know our contact details and I would be happy if he did come. ”
Kelly also revealed that harding, who was already suffering from autism and therefore had difficulty with some delicate motor skills, such as holding a pen or fastening and zippering, was unable to sleep Saturday night after being attacked by Ronaldo. Coupled with the fact that his mobile phone was broken by C Luo, his thumb was painful inside, there were obvious bruises on his hands, and the physical and mental trauma caused Harding to stay up all night.
So will Harding be invited by Cristiano Ronaldo to watch at the home of Manchester United in the future? Kelly gave a direct negative answer: "I asked Harding and he said, 'No, Mom. I never want to see him again'. It was frustrating because Cristiano Ronaldo was one of the reasons he wanted to watch Manchester United play. Apparently, in the eyes of his mother, the great image of C Luo in Harding's heart has completely collapsed because of his disrespectful behavior.
