      FILE - In this Saturday, Aug. 25, 2018 Juventus' Cristiano Ronaldo reacts during the Serie A soccer match between Juventus and Lazio at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, Italy. Lawyers for a Nevada woman who has accused Cristiano Ronaldo of raping her say a psychiatrist determined she suffers post-traumatic stress and depression because of the alleged 2009 attack in Las Vegas. Kathryn Mayorga's attorney, Leslie Stovall, told reporters Wednesday that the psychiatrist's medical opinion is that Mayorga's psychological injuries made her "incompetent" to legally reach a non-disclosure settlement with Ronaldo's representatives in 2010.
