Portuguese footballing legend, Cristiano Ronaldo, faced up to the humiliation of appearing in a Madrid Court this morning to receive a two-year jail sentence for tax fraud.
The 33-year-old Juventus player, who initially had denied all accusations, pleaded guilty to a tax fraud that deprived the Spanish tax department €14.7 million, money due on 2011-2014 image rights income that had been earned but not declared in Spain.
