Actress Wong Li Lin was accused of groping Cristiano Ronaldo by fans on social media. During Ronaldo's visit to South East Asia, Li Lin was seen grabbing the five-time Ballon d'Or winner by the arms during a promotional event.
When asked about the incident, the actress said that "I led him at the event as I knew what he was to do next. I just held his arm. When did I touch his other parts?"
She also said that "Ronaldo is a football legend. Everyone loves him and wants to interact with him. And so did I, that’s all. I think if most of the netizens who left messages had the chance to meet him, they would do more."
