Ronaldo went ballistic at a referee who refused to let a goal stand after blowing the whistle when it was goal bound.
Brazilian legendary striker Ronaldo Nazario has voiced his anger after Real Valladolid had a goal controversially disallowed on Sunday.
The relegation-threatened club thought they had taken the lead against Europa League semi-finalists Sevilla just before halftime after Sergio Escudero had fired a shot into the bottom-right corner from 30 yards out.
However, referee Miguel Angel Ortiz Arias refused to let the goal stand - despite the fact that he blew the half-time whistle while the ball was hitting the back of the net.
Valladolid players and staff were left furious as a result and demanded answers from the officials.
