Merseyside Police have issued a statement after an incident involving Cristiano Ronaldo following Manchester United's 1-0 defeat to Everton on Saturday afternoon.
A video showing Ronaldo smash an object -suggested to be a phone - as he made his way down the tunnel at Goodison Park went viral on social media. Ronaldo later issued a statement apologising on social media and inviting the fan in question to a game.
Ronaldo and his United team-mates were being booed and heckled as the incident unfolded. Several police officers were watching nearby and did not intervene at the time. Ronaldo was carrying a shin pad in his left hand after suffering a nasty gash on his left leg.
