Real Madrid’s 3-1 win over Barcelona last night is taking a new dimension as CRISTIANO RONALDO is about to face 12-match ban after pushing referee Ricardo De Burgos Bengoetxea during the match..

The attacker shoved the referee in frustration after he received a second yellow card in the game.

Ronaldo was booked for taking his shirt off while celebrating and picked up another booking for simulation after going down in the Barcelona penalty area under pressure from Samuel Umtiti.

Under Article 96 of the Spanish FA’s rule book, any player who “grabs, shakes or pushes” a referee can be suspended for between four and 12 matches.
At the very least he will serve a one-match ban for his red card, meaning he’ll miss the second leg of the Super Cup..
