Morgan on Ronaldo’s Red Card: Messi Did Exactly the Same Thing, Yet Nothing Happened

In this round of UEFA Euro Qualifiers, the Republic of Ireland took on Portugal. Cristiano Ronaldo was shown a red card after committing an elbowing foul on John O’Shea during the match.

Piers Morgan posted two consecutive videos regarding Cristiano Ronaldo’s red card.

First, he shared a video of the incident that led to Ronaldo’s straight red card during the Republic of Ireland vs Portugal match, with the caption: “Ridiculous that Ronaldo was sent off for resisting someone pulling his shirt back.”

Later, he uploaded a video of Lionel Messi making a similar gesture while taking a throw-in in MLS, accompanied by the caption: "When Messi did exactly the same recently, nothing was done."
