Sometimes sponsors give you money but Cristiano Ronaldo gets given goals.
His hat-trick in Portugal’s opening game is one that Spanish keeper, David de Gea, would like to forget. Especially the apparent blunder that resulted in the second goal.

The interference was even captured on video...

Hyundai Australia have denied any involvement but we’re not so sure.
We promise we had nothing to do with this @D_DeGea 😳😳 https://t.co/6kXy7GCBlZ
