From the BBN segment “Ronaldo banned for 30 days, fined $285 by Portugal over spat with…”, cut down to under a minute.
The full story and the real reporting behind it (Al Jazeera) →
What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: Al Jazeera.
Gloria VancePortugal's football federation banned him for thirty days and fined him two hundred fifty-five euros, about two hundred eighty-five dollars, after he left the national team camp over a rift with coach Jorge Jesus.
Vera BullockDoes the ban start today?
Gloria VanceNo, it's backdated to September thirtieth, the day he left. He's available again November fourteenth, for Portugal's next international.
Vera BullockSo he was banned before anyone told him he was banned?
Gloria VanceThe council says it upheld the charge in full. It did not say when it started holding it.
Gloria VanceFederation president Pedro Proença called it a misunderstanding with the coach, and says everyone wants Ronaldo back. Mostly the ones who sent the fine.
Vera BullockSo he's available November fourteenth, and the federation is still processing September thirtieth. Brock, is there a forecast for people who got the memo late?
