Netizens flood memes after Ronaldo’s snub brings massive drop in soft drink's market value
The incident of Cristiano Ronaldo removing two bottles of Coca Cola kept in front of him during a pre-match press conference at European Championship has now prompted people to share hilarious memes on twitter using the hashtag #ronaldococacola.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s snub had a massive impact on the brand and coincided with a $4bn fall in the share price of the company.
The Juventus star moved forward by holding up a bottle of water saying, “Agua! (Water!)”.
