CRISTIANO RONALDO showed he is no fan of AC Milan star Lucas Paqueta – as he barged through the player as he made his way off in Juventus’ Copa Italia stalemate.
The Portuguese superstar was certainly not worried about social distancing as he whacked into the player, despite Juve squeezing through to the Copa Italia final.
Frustrated Cristiano Ronaldo and (right) barging through AC MIlan’s Lucas Paqueta after Juventus’ goalless draw
The sides played out a boring goalless draw in one of the first matches back in Italy after coronavirus halted the season.
On a miserable night for Ronaldo, he fluffed an early penalty.
The former Real Madrid and Manchester United star had been stiffled by Brazilian Paqueta and his team-mates.
But AC would always struggle after Ante Rebic was sent off just after Ronaldo’s awful spot-kick which hit a post.
AC Milan full-back Andrea Conti handled in the area on 15 minutes.
The penalty was given after a check by VAR.
The tie was poised at 1-1 after the first leg, so Juve went through on the away goals rule.
Rebic smashed into Danilo with a kung fu kick to earn a straight red card.
That gave his side a mountain to climb.
Milan then defended stoically, hoping to catch Juve on the break.
This left Ronaldo hugely frustrated – and he took that out on the baffled Paqueta at the final whistle before storming down the tunnel to the dressing room.
