Ronaldo ruled out of Barça clash.

The Spanish Sporting Disclipline Commission (CSDD) ruled against Real Madrid's appeal for the suspension imposed on Ronaldo following his sending-off against Getafe last weekend, to be suspended, which definitely rules him out of the first 'classic' of the season that will take place in the Nou Camp tommorow night at 9pm in Canal +'s televised game.

The Brazilian striker was sent off after picking up two yellow cards after coming on a substitute during last Sunday's disappointing defeat to Getafe.

The first came in the 81st minute for "pushing over an opponent in a challenge for the ball," according the referee's report, which explains that the second, in the 89th minute was for "a blatant protest" after the referee yellow-carded Ruud van Nistelrooy for the same offence.

Since his return from knee surgery, the former Nou Camp old boy has played just 56 minutes of first-team football in two appearances as a substitute.

For their part, the champions are without Samuel Eto'o, who is in danger of missing the rest of the season after picking up a serious knee injury.

Real Madrid's Ronaldo stunned by dismissal.

Real Madrid striker Ronaldo has no idea why he was sent-off in yesterday's defeat at Getafe.

The Brazilian star was shown the red card for dissent and he will now miss next weekend's big clash with Barcelona.

Ronaldo could not explain why he was given his marching orders.

"I don't understand why I was given a second yellow card," said Ronaldo.

"I saw that (Ruud) van Nistelrooy was shouting because the referee had blown for a foul for no reason and I asked him why he had booked him.

"The referee moved his head and I said he was a 'phenomenon' and he then gave me the yellow card."

I think it was a bad decission by the referre as Ronaldo seems inocent in the TV. But I don't know what is the cause to give him 2nd yellow card while he didn't do anything. Ruud Van Nistolrooy also shown yellow card at the same time while he also did nothing. But red card of Ronaldo was not correct and referre should get blame on this.
