The Portugual superstar scored thrice to knock the Spanish club out the Champions League, and he mimicked Atleti boss Diego Simeone’s celebration from the first leg.Simeone was hit with an 17,000 fine for what was judged to be an ‘obscene’ celebration. Ronaldo’s celebration came after he converted a late penalty to complete the 3-0 victory which sent the Serie A side through on aggregate to the quarter-finals.Ronaldo escaped suspension as UEFA announced the decision of its control, ethics and disciplinary body in a short statement on Thursday afternoon.The forward was facing an improper conduct charge under Art. 11 (2) (b) and Art. 11 (2) (d) of the UEFA disciplinary regulations.
