The forward, regarded by many as in the top two best footballers in the world, looked to make a motion toward Barcelona fans, urging them to calm down after his first half equaliser.
Spanish league president Javier Tebas says they will be investigating the incident in a bid to clamp down on all provocative actions. The investigation is part of a policy brought in following the death of a Deportivo fan after fighting before a league match in November.
Tebas said, “We have to be careful with provocative gestures by a player or conduct that could incite violence among spectators.
“It must be sanctioned, from a fine up to a suspension. We will look into it.”
Ronaldo left the match with egg on his face following the controversial celebration though, as his side went on to lose 2-1 against Barcelona, following a second half strike from Luis Suarez.
