During the weekend Juventus defeated AC Milan 1-0 on Sunday night, but the win was less celebrated because of Cristiano Ronaldo’s antics when he was substituted on the 55th minute.
Last week, he was substituted during Juve’s Champions League match against Lokomotiv Moscow with the score still level at 1-1. The Old Lady went on to win 2-1.
And against Ac Milan, the Portuguese was replaced by Paulo Dybala in the 55th-minute with the score still 0-0.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner didn’t look happy to be subbed as he muttered something under his breath in the direction of Maurizio Sarri and walked straight down the tunnel.

But, once again, Sarri’s controversial decision was vindicated as Dybala scored the only goal of the game in the 77th-minute.
Meanwhile, Ronaldo didn’t seem too interested in whether his side would go on to win the match.
That’s because Sky Sport Italia confirmed that Ronaldo had left the Allianz Stadium before the match had even finished, in the 87th-minute to be exact.
And, apparently, that could land him in big trouble, because according to former Italian footballer Antonio Cassano, Ronaldo could be facing a two-year ban – a ban that he was threatened with himself.
“Did he leave before the end of the game?” Cassano asked on the Italian television show Tiki-Taka, per AS. “You can’t do that because there is an anti-doping control, “I had to go back to the stadium urgently to avoid a two-year ban.”
