Yep, serious stuff being discussed in Spain
Incredibly, five days on, the fall out from Sunday’s El Clasico continues. You probably heard about Cristiano Ronaldo being investigated for his ‘calm down’ celebration but another incident in the game is also under scrutiny. And it involves Ronaldo’s testicles.
After an incident went against Real Madrid, Ronaldo had a go at the referee Antonio Mateu, shouting repeatedly at him ‘Mateu, you like it?’
As you can see in the video the contention is that Ronaldo then made an obscene gesture with his groin.

The president of the Spanish League, Javier Tebas, is very clear about what should happen, according to Marca.
“We can’t permit people to make gestures like these; we need to rid football of them. If Ronaldo touched his balls, he has to be punished,” he said.
Definitely one of the quotes of the year so far…
