Boateng disciplined for Ronaldo comments

Middlesbrough skipper George Boateng has been disciplined by his club after the player warned Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo his antics could earn him reprisals.

The furious Dutchman hit out in the wake of Boro's FA Cup quarter-final replay defeat at Old Trafford in which the Portugal international, not for the first time this season, won his side a controversial penalty against the north-east club.
