Cristiano Ronaldo was suspended for one game and fined 5,300 dollars by the Saudi Federation. The veteran star reacted with an obscene gesture to chants of "Messi, Messi" from the stands.

"It doesn't take much to elicit a reaction from one of the most famous athletes in the world," said a commentary column in "Athletic" This is the second time that Ronaldo has made a move that is seen as "immoral" since he signed for Al Nasser.
