Cristiano Ronaldo: Juventus forward charged by Uefa over celebration

Ronaldo has scored 124 goals in the Champions League

Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo has been charged with improper conduct by Uefa for his celebration after beating Atletico Madrid to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

The 34-year-old appeared to mimic Atletico boss Diego Simeone, who turned to fans and grabbed his crotch during his side’s 2-0 first-leg victory.

Ronaldo scored a hat-trick in the return leg as Juventus won 3-0.

Simeone was fined 20,000 euros (£17,000) for his celebration.
