在一名美国女子宣称自己于2009年被克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多强奸之后，这名葡萄牙足球运动员日前驳回了这一指控，并称这是“假新闻”。
Cristiano Ronaldo has dismissed as "fake news" accusations by a US woman who alleges she was raped by the Portuguese footballer in 2009.
在一段Instagram视频中，C罗说到：“他们希望通过使用我的名字来宣传自己。这很正常。”
In an Instagram video, Ronaldo said: "They want to promote themselves by using my name. It's normal."
C罗的律师表示，他们将起诉最初报道了这些指控的德国杂志《明镜周刊》。
Ronaldo's lawyers say they will sue Germany's Der Spiegel magazine, which originally reported the allegations.
该杂志写道，这位名叫凯瑟琳·马约尔加的女子称，她曾被C罗在拉斯维加斯的一间旅馆房间内强奸。
The magazine wrote that Kathryn Mayorga had claimed Ronaldo raped her in a hotel room in Las Vegas.
据称，34岁的马约尔加女士在这起事件发生后不久就向拉斯维加斯警方提交了强奸报告。
Ms Mayorga, 34, is reported to have filed a rape report with Las Vegas police shortly after the alleged incident.
据报道，她与C罗在2010年达成了一项庭外和解协议，涉及37.5万美元的款项，并同意永远不会公开指控。
In 2010, she reportedly reached an out-of-court settlement with Ronaldo involving a USD 375,000 payment for agreeing never to go public with the allegations.
她的律师现在正在想办法让保密协议无效。
Her lawyers are now seeking to declare the non-disclosure agreement void.
