"I assure you that my daughter did not mean to insult Cristiano Ronaldo because she knows nothing about football," she continued.
"She was just repeating what she heard around her. She is nine years old and she just wanted to express her joy, but unfortunately she was a victim of social media."
"I apologize to all Cristiano Ronaldo fans for what happened, she is dealing with her mental health," she said.
"Please consider her as if she were your little sister and forgive her."
