Radio star gives Ronaldo shoes

Munich police are reportedly investigating after Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil and Karim Benzema allegedly had belongings stolen from the dressing room before the semi-final, first leg at the Allianz Arena.

Bayern 1 presenter Stephan Lehmann, who is also the Bayern Munich stadium announcer, appealed to his listeners for a pair of brogues to send to Ronaldo and some were donated by a shoe maker, the radio station told its website.

"We need Bavarian brogues, size 43, for the most expensive footballer in the world," Lehmann said, www.br.de reported.

The package also included a personal note to Ronaldo, telling him he would look 'really snazzy' in the new shoes.

It read: "Dear Cristiano Ronaldo.

"Hospitable people live here in Bavaria. We may steal maypoles, but not shoes. We therefore wanted to replace what you lost. Here are a pair of genuine Bavarian brogues for you. With them you won't be able to score any goals, but you will look really snazzy.

"Kind regards, Stephan Lehmann and the Bayern 1 team."

Madrid lost the game 2-1. The second leg will take place in the Spanish capital next week.
