The soccer star received a boost from Israeli opposition leader and Labor Party head Isaac Herzog, who tweeted his support.@Cristiano you spelled "OCCUPIED PALESTINE" kinda weird there.

This is not the first time that Ronaldo has drawn the wrath of Israel opponents.In 2013, the Portuguese phenom created an uproar on his Facebook page after posting a picture of himself and his teammates on the Tel Aviv beachfront, writing, “Great morning in Israel with my colleagues.”Ronaldo was in Israel with his Portuguese national team to take part in a World Cup qualifying match.@Cristiano you are indeed a true star in IL. don't fear and don't give up to our haters and bashers! this comes from a loyal Barca supporter
