Cristiano Ronaldo in the crosshairs for a bad gesture at the end of the game lost by Manchester United 1-0 at Everton.

The Portuguese ace was leaving the pitch, as usual surrounded by fans trying to take pictures of him from the stands, when passing in front of a 14-year-old Toffees fan, with a movement of annoyance he knocked his mobile phone to the ground and destroyed.

But then he apologized on social media with a post: "It is never easy to deal with emotions in difficult moments like the one we are facing - wrote the former Juve and Real -. However, we must always be respectful, patient and give the example to all young people who love good games. I would like to apologize for my outburst and, if possible, I would like to invite this fan to watch a game at Old Trafford as a sign of fair play and sportsmanship. "

The defeat of Goodison Park has greatly complicated United's chances of qualifying for the next Champions League. The club said it was aware of "an alleged incident following today's game against Everton" and "will cooperate with any police investigation".

Meanwhile, the boy's mother made it known that her son is autistic: “It was the first football match he went to, and this is what happened. He's upset, and he doesn't want to go to the stadium anymore ”.
