Cristiano Ronaldo exploded again.
Ronaldo played in the 21st round of the 2024-2025 Saudi Professional League against RT Park at Alawal Park in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on the 23rd (Korea time), but failed to prevent his team's 2-3 defeat.
The scene in question came before the end of the game. 44 minutes into the second half when al-Nasr allowed an upset goal from RT Park's Giorgio Wijnaldum. On his way to the halfway line, John Duran hit RT Park's Abdullah al-Malki in the back of the head with his hand. With Al-Malki clasping his head and flailing to the ground, the referee immediately pulled out a red card to Duran.
With Al-Nasr players protesting over the referee, Ronaldo also raised his arms and began to protest as if he could not understand. Then, he suddenly kicked the ball in the center of the center circle toward the stands and vented his anger. Ronaldo walked toward the atmosphere, shouted, and continued to protest, perhaps because his anger did not go away. However, the decision was not reversed, and Al-Nasr lost by one goal.
The Daily Mail, a British daily newspaper, reported that `After the match, fans criticized Ronaldo's actions through social media.' One fan commented 'He's constantly shaming himself' while another commented 'This freaking X gets a gear warning for doing something like that. Another said 'It's literally the Ronaldo League. There is no one to punish him, so he does such a thing,' he said with an unflattering look.
Al-Nasr boss Stefano Pioli said, `We are not happy with the exit, but our players need to stay calm", he commented on the situation on the day. "We could have done better, but we lost a lot by mistake and we ended up losing it," he expressed regret.
