Cordoba Coach Miroslav Djukic Slams Cristiano Ronaldo's 'Ugly' Gesture

Cordoba Coach Miroslav Djukic Slams Cristiano Ronaldo's 'Ugly' Gesture

Cordoba coach Miroslav Djukic has slammed Cristiano Ronaldo's 'ugly gesture' after the Portuguese taunted the home fans as he walked off the pitch following his red card.

Ronaldo had seen red for kicking opposition player Edimar and subsequently showed the Cordoba fans his Club World Cup badge, even appearing to polish it.

Djukic labelled Ronaldo's kick "an act of desperation," which in turn led to the "gesture to his badge, which was ugly and conceited."

"He shouldn't have done that because it is not usual for the best players in the world, who are him and Messi."

The Cordoba coach also insisted Ronaldo's bad day resulted from his side's close marking of the 2014 FIFA Ballon d'Or winner.

"We closed Ronaldo down well," he added.

"He wasn't feeling good, that's what caused the whole thing, because of the desperation he felt.

"When you're young, you dream of beating a huge club like Real Madrid, the best team in the world at the moment."

Ronaldo has since received a two-match ban and will now sit out the games against Real Sociedad and Sevilla, but is available for the derby against Atletico Madrid.
