The renowned football commentator in Mexico, Christian Martinoli, recently shared an anecdote in which he revealed that Ronaldinho gave him a low blow during an exhibition match. According to Martinoli, the incident was triggered after he made an inappropriate comment about the legendary Brazilian player.
In an interview on the podcast 'Así de Bolas', Martinoli recalled the moment he had the opportunity to commentate on a legends match in the presence of Ronaldinho and Jorge Campos. During the match, noticing Ronaldinho's somewhat passive attitude on the field, the commentator decided to make a joking comment that turned out to be offensive to the former Barcelona player.
When greeted by Ronaldinho, Martinoli expressed in his commentary: "Damn Ronaldinho is on another level... it’s not possible that Ronaldinho is looking at us like that." These words seemed not to sit well with the Brazilian star, who immediately responded by delivering a blow to an unpleasant area for the commentator.
Despite the mishap, Martinoli managed to smooth over the situation by praising Ronaldinho, recognizing him as "the greatest in the world." This anecdote adds to the extensive list of controversies and highlights in the professional career of Christian Martinoli, who has solidified his reputation as one of the most prominent commentators in Mexico.
