And it wasn't just verbals that they hurled with several fireworks also used to disturb the team's night. Their actions alerted the national Police force, who arrived at the hotel and set up a perimeter around it so that Cristiano Ronaldo and the rest of the players could get their rest ahead of the Valencia game this evening at 21:00 local time.
The police are in the process of trying to identify the hooded group and are using the hotel's security cameras which recorded the events.
