The young fan, Jacob Kelly, 14, is autistic and did not attempt to insult or mock Ronaldo. Instead, he was only trying to get a glimpse of the Portuguese superstar up close and lowered the phone upon seeing he was injured.

The 1-0 loss was pretty embarrassing but with another police investigation underway, things are going from bad to worse for the Red Devils.

Jake’s mum Sarah also shared a photo of her son’s bruised hand and condemned Ronaldo for his unjustifiable act.
