Sister of Portugal national team forward Cristiano Ronaldo commented on her brother's double in the 2024 European Championship qualifying match against the national team of Slovakia.
The 38-year-old striker scored two goals and helped the Portuguese team not only win the match (3-0), but also early exit to the final stage of Euro 2024. The two goals were the 856th and 857th of Ronaldo's career.
The football player's sister wrote on social media:
857 lashes? Oops, sorry, my mistake. 857 goals.
Katia Aveiro thus mocked the report that her brother faces a punishment of 99 lashes. During a visit to Iran, the Portuguese footballer hugged and kissed the girl, thus violating the local law. The Iranian Embassy denied rumors about Ronaldo's punishment.
