"Why are people so quick to tear a person apart" - Victoria Azarenka condemns Cristiano Ronaldo critics following Portugal's World Cup exit
Victoria Azarenka has condemned everyone who mocked Cristiano Ronaldo following Portugal's elimination from the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Portugal was eliminated from the tournament in Qatar following a 1-0 quarterfinal defeat to Morocco on December 10. The team's talisman Ronaldo was seen in tears after the game.
The 33-year-old Azarenka voiced her dissatisfaction with the way the football icon was being treated on social media.

Victoria Azarenka is currently enjoying her off-season before she begins preparations for next year. She had a mixed 2022 campaign and will be hoping to do better in the coming season.
She began her year at the Adelaide International, where she reached the quarterfinals before losing 6-3, 2-6, 6-1 to Iga Swiatek. Her best Grand Slam results of the season were her Round of 16 appearances at the Australian Open and the US Open. She was defeated by Barbora Krejcikova 6-2, 6-2 in the former, while Karolina Pliskova won 7-5,6(5)-7, 6-2 against her in the latter. Due to Wimbledon's ban on Russian and Belarusian players, she decided to skip all grasscourt tournaments.
Azarenka was last seen in action at the Guadalajara Open when she reached the quarterfinals but lost to eventual champion Jessica Pegula 7-6(3), 6-1 — her best result of the season. She concluded her 2022 campaign with a 24-13 win-loss record and ranked World No. 26.
