Cristiano Ronaldo, a star forward with Juventus, the Italian football club and a captain of the Portugal national team, drew wide criticism among fans and the sports community after starring in a commercial promoting an Asian multi-brand online shopping platform.

Axar.az reports foreign media that Ronaldo instantly gets an "orange card" from a referee - the color of this online-shopping platform - and his jersey also instantly turns orange. Ronaldo starts dancing in a peculiar way and simultaneously turns on a mobile app of this online store on his smartphone.

The scene with Ronaldo' bizarre dance stirred netizens, who appeared to be baffled with the odd commercial.
