Ronaldo received a team suspension. Would you accept lighter punishment for a star than for another player who broke the same rule?
Portugal’s football federation announced a disciplinary sanction for Cristiano Ronaldo on 19 October. The decision concerned his departure from the national-team camp. The sanction was a 30-day suspension and a €255 fine. Portuguese reporting said 19 days of the suspension had already been served. The decision therefore did not mean another full 30 days starting on announcement day.
