It was thought the Portugal star was venting his frustration when he threw his jersey away after the Serie A clash
Cristiano Ronaldo was giving his shirt to a ball boy when he threw it away at the end of Juventus’ 3-1 win against Genoa on Sunday.
It appeared that the 36-year-old had acted out of anger after failing to find the net in the Serie A clash.
Dejan Kulusevski, Alvaro Morata and Weston McKennie were all among the goals as the Italian champions sealed the three points, but Ronaldo grabbed the media’s attention with his reaction after the final whistle
Asked about the attacker’s apparent anger, Juve coach Andrea Pirlo came to his defence.
“It’s normal he wanted to score a goal, especially seeing that the match had turned out in a certain way,” he said to Sky Sport.
“It is part of the attitude of champions who always want to leave their mark.”
