Portugal manager Fernando Santos has said that Cristiano Ronaldo was insulted by South Korea's Cho Gue-sung as the Selecao captain was leaving the pitch on being substituted during their 2022 FIFA World Cup clash on Friday. He had a tense exchange of words with Gue-sung as Ronaldo was then seen putting his finger to his mouth, gesturing the Korean striker to keep quiet. The 37-year-old initially looked unhappy at the decision to bring him off in the 65th minute.
