Cristiano arguing with the referee (Via Goal com)
Global superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is no stranger to animated reactions and outbursts during the game. Tuesday’s clash against Shabab Al-Ahli was no different as the Portuguese was seen fuming against officials at the halftime whistle. Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr locked horns with Al-Ahil in the playoffs of the AFC Champions League, the premier club competition in Asia. Cristiano failed to register a goal as his team edged the time through 3 very late goals.
Cristiano Ronaldo was furious following three penalty calls dismissed by the referee. His distaste at the referee’s decision was visible and ended up telling the referee to “f*ck off” before heading down the tunnel. He was also spotted pushing a person to the side on his way to the tunnel. Netizens have mixed reactions to the incident, with fans defending the player for his frustration against the ‘unjustly’ denied penalties while others called the player ‘entitled’ and ‘arrogant’ as is the narrative against the superstar.
Al-Nassr were trailing the majority of the game two goals to one until Sultan Al-Ghannam equalized for the hosts, following which Brozovic and Talisca scored to hand Al-Nassr a 4-2 win allowing them to progress to the group stage of the AFC Champions League.
Neymar’s Al-Hilal Debut might be delayed due to Injury
Neymar Jr. made the move to Saudi giants Al-Hilal in a deal that involved the player earning almost £160 million over 2 years. However, Neymar’s debut may be delayed until as late as September.
Al Hilal Gaffer Jorge Jesus said at a Press conference that Neymar is still recovering from his ‘ankle injury’ and will make his debut most likely in late September. Neymar has also been named in the Brazil squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
The footballing world is in awe of Neymar’s contractual perks such as the private Boeing 747, bonus per win, bonus per post and other outrageous stats. Neymar became the latest and most likely the biggest European signing to the Saudi Pro League following the arrival of Cristiano to rivals Al-Nassr.
