Cristiano Ronaldo was suspended for 3 games, 2 of which were suspended! MiTi: The credibility of the entire FIFA system is wavering

According to multiple media reports, FIFA has made a penalty decision on Ronaldo's red card for elbowing in the game against Ireland. He will be suspended for 3 games, but 2 games will be suspended. This also means that Ronaldo will not miss Portugal's World Cup next year because of this red card. According to "Gazzetta dello Sport", Ronaldo's light sentence of suspending one game and suspending two games will cause the credibility of the entire FIFA system to be shaken.

In the World Cup qualifying match against Ireland, Ronaldo gave O'Shea a very bad elbow in the Irish penalty area. The referee initially showed Ronaldo a yellow card but changed it to a red card after watching VAR. It also caused a lot of criticism in Portugal, but the fact is that even without Ronaldo, his teammates still beat Armenia 9-1 and locked in the qualification in advance.

However, the rules clearly stipulate that violence in football will be punished by a ban of at least three games. Article 14, paragraph 1, of the FIFA Disciplinary Code reads: "For violent actions such as elbowing, kicking or spitting, a ban of at least three games will be imposed." If the regulations are implemented and there are no other official games until next summer, then this at least three-game ban will make the former Real Madrid and Juventus star miss the first two games of the World Cup, and possibly even the entire group stage.

However, what awaits everyone today is not a heavy fine, but a light sentence that "erases the traces": a one-match suspension (already executed) plus two suspended executions. In fact, if Ronaldo commits another offense, severe penalties will be initiated immediately. But so far, everything has been uneventful. This is only true for Ronaldo, but the credibility of the entire FIFA system is shaking.

Everyone is equal before the law, unless you are the kind of super person who can walk into the White House and cannot miss even one (or two) games of his sixth World Cup. FIFA effectively gave Ronaldo a free pass to avoid losing him at next summer's World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the United States.
