Ronaldo 8-0 Messi: Star's Red Card Record Soars



Ronaldo's sending off in Bilbao was the eighth of his playing career, whilst Leo Messi, his biggest rival, has none. He saw four red cards at Manchester United and has seen as many at Real Madrid. The last time he was sent for an early shower was during last season's Spanish Cup final, when he saw a straight red for lashing out at Gabi with his boot.

It looks likely that the Disciplinary Committee will suspend the Real Madrid forward for violent conduct. If that happens, Carlo Ancelotti can breathe easily as he'll only lose his star for one match, plus, it looks as though Gareth Bale will be fit to play.

If, as expected, the Disciplinary Committee does not give Cristiano Ronaldo more than a three-match ban, then he will take to the pitch for Wednesday's Spanish Cup derby at the Santiago Bernabéu, but will more than likely miss Real's next league game, at home to Villarreal.

"It's hard to say what happened. The footage shows that it was all a bit exaggerated," said Carlo Ancelotti at the final whistle, adding "I'm very pleased with Real Madrid's performance. It was a tough and intense game. It could have gone differently because we scored first, but they scored a wonder goal."

Human-Animal Marriage Legal In American State Paul Horner with his dog Mac at their wedding Kentucky Republican, and heroic champion of limited government, Rand Paul had June last year expressed worry gay marriage will lead to marriages between humans and non-humans.

Paul had said, “It is difficult because if we have no laws on this people take it to one extension further,” Paul said. “Does it have to be humans?” Apparently realising the backlash following his comment could do more bad than good, Paul called backsies on the comments later in the day. “I don’t think it will be with multiple humans, and I think it will be human and human,” Paul clarified on Fox News. Marriage will remain “human and human.” Like he was prophesying, 35-year-old Pa

SPECIAL REPORT: Inside Agatu killing field: blood on the streets, charred bodies everywhere March 18, 2016 Emmanuel Mayah RELA Agatu Killings: Senate blames Boko Haram, not Fulani herdsmen March 9, 2016 Across the Nasarawa-Benue borderline, Agatu was still hundreds of miles away but passengers on the motorway were already getting an eyeful of savagery. In a village farm with fresh ridges heralding a new planting season, a young Fulani herder was perched on a cashew tree, his cattle trampling below him. Armed with a machete, he was hacking away at the lush branches, felling them to the ground for the animals to feed. The farm owners stood outside their huts and like the passing motorists could only watch helplessly as the cash crop was stripped bare and their yam seedlings destroyed. The routes to Makurdi and on to Otukpo and Apa were characterized by the same landscape and scenario. Along both sides of the road were hundreds of farmlands with ridges and all dott
