Cristiano Ronaldo got his Twitter fans talking after he examined a cut to his face using the mobile phone of a Real Madrid doctor while walking off the pitch towards the end of Sunday’s 7-1 win over Deportivo La Coruna.
Ronaldo sustained the injury while scoring Real’s sixth goal in the 84th minute as Deportivo defender Fabian Schar kicked the Portuguese forward in the face. The cut bled profusely, leaving tracks down his face, making him uncomfortable.
As Ronaldo walked towards the dressing room, he asked one of the medical staff if he could use his phone and was seen using the mobile’s screen to check out his face, however, once fans glimpsed the act, they took to Twitter to poke fun at the Portuguese star saying he took his obsession with his image to new heights.
