Did Cristiano Ronaldo push a fan in anger after the shocking defeat against Morocco at the 2022 FIFA World Cup? A video has surfaced online where a fan can be seen running towards Ronaldo while the star footballer was leaving the pitch. The fan was quickly escorted by the security personnel present on the field.
From one angle, it looks like it was Ronaldo who pushed the fan away. But it isn’t true. The correct camera angle has revealed the complete truth and it has now been confirmed that Ronaldo did not push the fan. The video clearly suggests that the security personnel didn’t let the fan make a contact with Ronaldo. The upset footballer continued his walk to the tunnel and was seen crying there as well.
Morocco, who entered the match as minnows, pulled off one of the most shocking defeats in the history of the game and defeated favourites Portugal to make it to the semi-final. Morocco gained a crucial lead in the first half and went into half-time with a 1-0 lead.
They maintained their lead and did a commendable job in the 2nd half. Ronaldo, who was on the bench in the first half, was brought into the playing XI in the 50th minute. He did come into action right away but couldn’t make an impact.
onaldo’s arrival was a treat for the fans but it didn’t make a big impact as far as increasing Portugal’s chances in the game was concerned. A total of extra 8 minutes were added after the end of 2nd half but Portugal failed to open their account.
Morocco will face France in the 2nd semi-final of the tournament on December 15. Lionel Messi-starrer Argentina will take on Croatia in the first semi-final on December 14. The final of the tournament is scheduled to be played on December 18.
