It’s not often that Cristiano Ronaldo comes under fire from all quarters, but the Portuguese’s lack of commitment in one particular area of his game has scene precisely that scenario come to pass.
Against Parma during Juventus’ midweek Serie A fixture, Ronaldo was accused of ducking out of the way of Gaston Brugman’s free-kick, which led to the game’s opening goal.
