At Real Madrid's camp - long-awaited news: Cristiano Ronaldo returns to the lineup after suspension and is ready to help his team in the Spanish championship.
C. Ronaldo earned a harsh suspension in Spain on August 13th, when in the Super Cup match against Barcelona he received a second yellow card for simulation, and in disagreement with that, he pushed the referee and received an additional five-match ban for it.
After this incident, C. Ronaldo has played only one official match - last week, Real easily defeated APOEL in the UEFA Champions League. The Portuguese player scored twice against the opponents' goalkeeper.
Today, C. Ronaldo will have the chance to open his scoring account in the "La Liga" championship - the "whites" host Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium at 23:00 Lithuanian time.
There is no doubt that C. Ronaldo will be in the starting lineup. The Portuguese will not only try to bring victory to his team but also to score as many goals as possible, as his main rival Lionel Messi has already scored nine times.
It is worth mentioning that Karim Benzema, Mateo Kovacic, Jesus Vallejo, and Theo Hernandez will definitely not play for Real in today's match.
