...but VAR ultimately intervenes and saves him for a second time in the game! 😅
What a dramatic end to this game 😵 pic.twitter.com/SOtmWOCBXT
If you thought Cristiano Ronaldo was a petty person... well... you're correct.
Transfermarkt have revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo messaged and blocked them due to his valuation on there..

Elsewhere, Spurs have continued to be Spursy. Only they could fumble a transfer like this. Antonio Conte is not going to be a happy man.

Did anyone expect this from Erling Haaland? The Norwegian is just full of surprises - he's just milking it now.
Erling Haaland: "I try to relax as much as I can. Being on a farm... driving a tractor, feeding my cows, that's my dream. That's what I want to do when I retire. I think I will buy a small farm when I finish football." pic.twitter.com/NnkeyGX4LH
