Sister of Juventus star Ronaldo: The shame of football. Justice will be served

Cristiano Ronaldo's family have rallied around the Juventus star after his dismissal during their Champions League win at Valencia.

Felix Brych showed the veteran a red card for an incident involving Jeison Murillo.

Ronaldo was distraught, leaving the field in tears, and his sister Katie Aveiro unleashed a tirade on Instagram.

“The shame of football. Justice will be served," she wrote.

“They want to destroy my brother, but God never sleeps.

“There will be a high price for these tears. They want to bring you down, but they won't succeed."
