On Thursday, Ronaldo’s club Al Nasr faced arch-rivals Ittihad in the Saudi Super Cup semi-finals. Ittihad defeated Al Nasser by three goals to one in the match held at the King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh.
With this, Ronaldo lost his chance to play a final match following a long break.
In the match, Romarinho, Abdul Razzak Hamdilla and Mohamed Al Shanqithi scored for Ittihad while Al Nasser’s consolation goal was won by Taliska.
But the efforts made by Al Ittihad fans to lose Ronaldo’s concentration in the game and to weaken the player mentally is now a topic of discussion in the social media. The Etihad fans responded by chanting Messi every time the ball hit Ronaldo’s feet. And Etihad fans tried to embarrass Ronaldo by singing chants in English and Arabic once morest Ronaldo.
But Al Nasr fans also came forward with the same reaction to these efforts of Etihad fans. They gave Roanoke support called Ronaldo. Al Nasr fans also raised many posters praising the star on the ground.
But despite being able to advance with the ball and provide crosses in the match, the Portuguese legend was unable to create goalscoring opportunities. And it was a regular sight in the match that the Etihad defense easily snatched the ball from Rono’s feet.
However, compared to the first match, we might see Ronaldo playing more in harmony with his teammates in the match once morest Etihad.
