The Portuguese star and his Juventus side all-but wrapped up the Serie A title by beating closest rivals Napoli 2-1 at the San Paolo Stadium.
Ronaldo didn’t find the net for Massimiliano Allegri’s side but did have a hand in the victory after being responsible for getting Meret sent for an early bath.
After a sloppy back-pass from Kevin Malcuit, Ronaldo pounced on the loose ball, getting to it first before the Napoli stopper.
The Juve hitman went down, despite not being caught by Meret, forcing referee Gianluca Rocchi to brandish a red card before Miralem Pjanic netted the resulting free-kick.
“What a great dive by Ronaldo. 10/10,” one supporter tweeted.
“Incredible dive from Ronaldo tbf, can’t teach that,” one wrote.
“Ronaldo just ruined the game with that dive,” a third added.
“What’s the point in VAR? That Ronaldo dive was disgusting.” another said.
