Cristiano Ronaldo vs Pogatetz Middlesbrough Fight Dive
Soccer Fights: Watch a series of incidents involving Ronaldo and Middlesbrough players including the recent wringing of his neck by Emanuel Pogatetz. Ronaldo’s overreaction led to further spats as the players walked into the tunnel. The video also traces a bit of the history between Cristiano and Middlesbrough – examples of Gareth Southgate’s description of Ronaldo as a “serial diver” – The FA Cup quarter final in 2006-2007 saw a typical Ronaldo dive which won Man U a penalty against Middlesbrough’s Woodgate. James Morrison responded by felling Ronaldo, for which he earned a red card and had a minor scuffle with Rooney. The video also includes Pogatetz’ red card this season vs Man U.
