Alaves Fans Went To Crazy Lengths To Distract Cristiano Ronaldo Taking A Penalty

Alaves Fans Went To Crazy Lengths To Distract Cristiano Ronaldo Taking A Penalty

Ronaldo was treated to some good old flesh flashing...

Fans behind the goal doing their best to put off an opposition player taking a penalty is football 101. You make a load of noise, throw your arms about and generally just try and get inside the player's head and put him off when taking his spot-kick.

But fans of La Liga minnows Alaves have a different method of trying to put a player off taking a penalty, evidenced in their 4-1 defeat against Real Madrid on Saturday.

Alaves were actually leading by the time Los Blancos were awarded an incredibly dubious first-half penalty that understandably infuriated the home fans. Supporters behind the goal thought they might as well do their best to put off one of the world's greatest players and so a couple of fans proceeded to flash their backsides, and another one going the extra mile and letting his genitals see the light of day as he looked to distract Ronaldo.

The Real Madrid superstar was unfazed and coolly slotted home the penalty, before two Alaves fans showed he and the Madrid players their cracks while they celebrated their equaliser.

However he did miss a spot-kick at the opposite end in the second half, not that it mattered too much as Ronaldo went on to score again in open play as Real won 4-1 to remain at the top of the table.
