London, Feb 16 : Cristiano Ronaldo and Derby's Robbie Savage clashed in the first half at Pride Park on Sunday, and there was little sign of mutual respect.
Cristiano Ronaldo fired home a thunderous FA Cup header as Manchester United crushed Derby 4-1.
Then just like with Diego Maradona's Hand of God goal, Ronaldo was at the centre of a gob-smacking incident, The Sun reported.
Pictures seemed to show him spitting at Savage, though the Derby star insisted: "Nothing happened."
