Ronaldo responds to Messi chant from Lazio fans with rude gesture

Cristiano Ronaldo responded to Lazio fans chanting after Lionel Messi by grabbing his crotch in front of them.

It came after Juventus lost to the Rome outfit in the Italian Super Cup, the annual meeting between the Coppa Italia winners and the Serie A champions – which ended 3-1.

Two second-half goals were enough to down the Old Lady, who could not rely on Ronaldo for goals this time round.

The Portuguese superstar was largely stunted in attack and received a barrage of criticism.

And Lazio fans looked to infuriate the former Real Madrid man further by chanting: “Messi! Messi! Messi!”

Ronaldo was not prepared to take that so easily, grabbing his crotch and giving a wry smile to the Lazio supporters.

However, it was Lazio that had the last laugh – winning in Saudi Arabia to put a further dent on Maurizio Sarri’s reign.

The Italian has come under pressure this season as they tussle with Inter Milan for the Serie A title.

Juve sit second on goal difference to Antonio Conte’s men – who are having a remarkable season in front of goal thanks to the efforts of Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez.

Lazio are not far behind, who are third with a goal in hand, in a brilliant year of their own.
