Liverpool Fans Planning A Minute Of Applause For Ronaldo During Their Game Against Manchester United

After Cristiano Ronaldo disclosed the death of one of his newborn twins on Monday night, April 18, Liverpool fans are organizing a minute of applause for him.

Ronaldo and his partner, Georgina Rodriguez, reported that their baby son had died shortly after Rodriguez gave birth to twins, but that their daughter had survived.

Many people have expressed their sympathies to the United’s forward on social media, including fans, teammates, and others.

Liverpool fans are also eager to make their own gesture when United visits Anfield this evening, as they are planning a minute’s applause.

A Liverpool fan Facebook page wrote: “If you are lucky enough to be attending the game tomorrow evening, then please show a mark of respect to Cristiano Ronaldo and his family by taking part in the round of applause which will be held on the seventh minute.

“Rivalries should be set aside in heartbreaking circumstances such as these. You’ll Never Walk Alone, CR7 Jr.”

People flocked to the comment section to express their support for the decision of the fans to sympathise with Ronaldo.

One person said: “Great gesture! Show the man some love whilst he is going through a horrid time. Can’t imagine the pain he must be going through. We’re humans first, football fans second.”

Another said: “This is a really nice gesture and this is what football is about! Rivalries aside, let’s show our class by doing this.”

Following the tragic news, Manchester United confirmed on Tuesday that Ronaldo will not play in the Premier League match against Liverpool.
