Watch Cristiano Ronaldo comfort steward he KO’d with ball during Man Utd warm-up as he translates for medics
VIDEO footage has emerged of Cristiano Ronaldo comforting a steward after KO’ing her with a football.
The incident occurred during the warm-up for last night’s Champions League game between Manchester United and Young Boys.
The innocent steward was sent flying after a miskick from Ronaldo flew right into her.
She lay prone on the ground as medics rushed to her aid.
And Ronnie himself charged over to make sure she was OK.
The new video now shows Ronaldo looking deeply concerned as he translates the steward’s messages for the medics.
The United superstar comforted her as she received treatment.
And she was fortunately uninjured by the accident.

Ronaldo then made the steward’s night by gifting her his shirt at the game.
She looked delighted to receive the great man’s jersey, despite the earlier incident.
But for Ronaldo, it was a night he’ll want to forget quickly.
That’s because United conceded a last-gasp goal in Switzerland, handing Young Boys a 2-1 win.

Ronaldo had put his side ahead in the group stage clash, adding to the two goals he netted on his second debut against Newcastle at the weekend.
However, Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s red card in the first half saw Young Boys take control.
And they eventually fought back for an equaliser before capitalising on sub Jesse Lingard’s back pass for a late winner.
