Cristiano Ronaldo Angrily Removed Coca-Cola Bottles During Press Conference, Coca-Cola Responds
A small dip in the stocks because of his gestures.
Cristiano Ronaldo was always an advocate for a healthier diet and abstained from sweet, sugary drinks such as Coca-Cola. In a recent appearance at a press conference, two bottles of Coca-Cola were displayed along with a bottle of water.
“Players are offered water, alongside Coca-Cola and Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, on arrival at our press conferences,” said Coca-Cola’s spokesperson. Dailymail
He took the two bottles and put them away before lifting the bottle of water and said, “Agua (water)!”
Who would’ve known such a simple act of healthier eating caused Coca-Cola’s value to dip in the next few hours. The company lost $4 billion in value, and Coca-Cola’s spokesperson finally commented on the incident that everyone is entitled to their preferences.

The 36-year-old explained that he’s always treated his body “like a temple” and has been recently even more strict about his diet. He doesn’t want Cristiano Ronaldo Jr, his eldest son, to adapt to unhealthy diets and consume fast food and sugary drinks.
That was about 1.6% of the company’s value.
The father-of-four said, “I’m hard with him sometimes because he drinks Coca-Cola and Fanta sometimes, and I’m p***** with him. I fight with him when he eats chips and fries and everything; he knows I don’t like it.
Not a good thing with Coca-Cola, but that was not a loss they can’t recover from!
