In this situation, Al Nassr did not achieve the expected goals, and Ronaldo was once again the source of the unpleasant act.
During the group stage of the Arab Club Champions Cup, early today morning (July 29), Al Nassr got into a fight with Al Shabab.Ronaldo came off the bench in the game’s final 30 minutes in an attempt to break the tie, but his only shot, which was deflected and missed the goal by a wide margin, was CR7’s only contribution to the offensive effort.Ronaldo has been held scoreless for Al Nassr in each of the last seven games that they have played.Prior to that, he failed to score in any of his six exhibition matches, including victories over Alverca 2-0 and Farense 5-1, losses to Celta Vigo 0-5 and Benfica 1-4, and draws against PSG 0-0 and Inter Milan 1-1.
The 0-0 draw with Al Shabab is not too serious because Al Nassr has 2 more group stage matches. But with Ronaldo, he was not satisfied with that fact, not even keeping his composure. Specifically, the Portuguese superstar went to the pitch right after the game and held a bottle of water to drink. At this point he was annoyed with a cameraman who was pointing the camera at him. CR7 then took the water bottle and threw it at the person and motioned for the person to go away.
Ronaldo’s action immediately received the anger of insiders as well as many fans present on the field. “Ronaldo is still as bad as ever. If you don’t like it, you take your anger out on everyone”, “The older Ronaldo gets, the worse he gets, that’s bad!”, “Can’t compare Ronaldo to Messi, this behavior is so bad”, “The cameraman That’s just doing his job, but in this match, he won’t ask for all the cameras on the field to turn to him”…. consecutive criticisms aimed at CR7 after the “angry fish slashing” action.
The attitude of the Portuguese superstar is always an issue that is mentioned whenever things don’t go his way. Because this is not the first time the former Man United player has lost control since moving to Saudi Arabia. Before that, after a 0-1 defeat to Al Wehda in the semi-finals of the King’s Cup, Ronaldo raised his voice to the coaching staff. And yet, when Al Nassar lost to Al Hilal 0-2 on April 19, this superstar was also harshly criticized for making obscene gestures when rival fans chanted Messi’s name in front of him.
