Cristiano Rolando’s sister compares his treatment at Man United to crucifixion of Jesus
Cristiano Ronaldo’s sister has compared his treatment by Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag to Jesus Christ’s crucifixion amid his public falling out with the club.
Ronaldo landed himself in hot water by storming down the tunnel in the 89th minute during Man United’s 2-0 win over Tottenham on Wednesday.
The 37-year-old reportedly refused to come on as a substitute, a decision that has seen boss Ten Hag banish the striker from the first-team squad.
His sister Katia Aviero has jumped to his defence on Instagram in a bizarre post which included a comparison to Jesus, describing Ronaldo as a warrior as well as posting a video of Jose Mourinho.
Aviero wrote on her Instagram: “No-one who was born to shine by the hands of God will be undone by someone who has never worn his shoes. He is and will be history,”
“There is a verse in the bible that says: ‘This man was handed over to you by God’s deliberate plan and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men, put him to death by nailing him to the cross.’
“He fulfilled the promise he made as a 13-year-old boy to his mum and siblings. This is the one whose accent was made fun of and was mocked over his alcoholic dad.”
She then added to her Instagram story to hammer home her message, with one such video including a clip from his former manager Jose Mourinho.
The clip had Mourinho saying: “If you are not able to coach the big players you are not able to coach anyone.”
It even included her pointing towards a post that was taken down following former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen’s comments defending the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.

All of this comes after Ten Hag’s comments ahead of the Chelsea game in which he wants Ronaldo to say sorry to the whole Manchester United team.
As a result of his actions, he has been left out of the crunch match game with Chelsea, but according to Fabrizio Romano he could return who claims there could be a chance for Ronaldo to be back in the first team next week.
