The former Manchester United star received his marching orders after
kicking out at Cordoba’s Brazilian defender Edimar Fraga in the box as
the score was tied at 1-1.
Ronaldo had been held in check until the 82nd when his frustration boiled over as he lashed out in anger.
Nabil Ghilas opened the scoring with a penalty two minutes in for the hosts, somewhat against the run of play.
However, Karim Benzema equalised for Madrid just before the half-hour mark, and set the league leaders on their way.
The
winner looked like it was never going to come, especially after
Ronaldo’s petulance, but Bale stepped up to the plate in the
Portuguese’s absence to earn his side the spot-kick, and converted it
himself. ...SkySports
