Coca-Cola, as we all know is one of the leading beverage companies, recently they suffered a loss of $4 billion a day after football legend Cristiano Ronaldo removed the bottles of Coca Cola from his table ahead of a press-conference.
As per a report in The Daily Star, the prices of the company dipped by 1.6 per cent and the its value dropped from $242 billion to $238 billion.
Ronaldo noticed the two bottles of Coca-Cola placed before him on a table for advertisement during a press conference before Portugal’s match against Hungary in the ongoing UEFA European Football Championship.
Cristiano Ronaldo was angry because they put Coca Cola in front of him at the Portugal press conference, instead of water! ????

He removed the bottles from the table and waved a bottle of water at the camera, urging people to use water instead of carbonated soft drinks.
The video of the incident went viral on social media in no minutes, serving a major hit to Coca Cola.
This looks like a major lose for a brand like Coca Cola. Christiano Ronaldo must have removed the drink because he was not interested in this kind of advertisement but his act of removing the drink actually did some kind of advertisement for the brand maybe it all came out negatively for a brand since they lose billions of buyers but then again it became the center of discussion. Well, I know that carbonated drinks are not good for your health and asking all to drink water instead is a great message but then again he should know that he have huge following and his this act could harm a brand like Coca Cola.
Let’s see how the brand comes up to cope up with the loss.
What do you think was this act of Cristiano Ronaldo was okay or not?
