Cristiano Ronaldo slammed for lack of "dignity" after dramatic World Cup exit

Cristiano Ronaldo World Cup Didi Hamann Dietmar Hamann Morocco Atlas Lions Portugal Walid Regragui France

Dietmar Hamann has taken a swipe at Cristiano Ronaldo after Morocco were beaten 2-0 by France in the World Cup semi-finals on Wednesday night.

The Atlas Lions performed admirably but could not overcome the defending champions, who will face Argentina in Sunday's showpiece final courtesy of goals from Theo Hernandez and second-half substitute Randal Kolo Muani.

Walid Regragui's side made history by becoming the first African nation to reach the semi-finals of the World Cup after conquering Portugal in the quarter-finals. And it was all too much for Ronaldo, who left the pitch in tears immediately after the final whistle without acknowledging any of his own teammates or Morocco players.
