On April 9, Al Nassr lost 1:2 to Al Hilal.
That time, passions reached their highest point at the end of the match. In the 86th minute of the confrontation, the 39-year-old C.Ronaldo could not control his emotions and allegedly elbowed the opponent.
The Portuguese wanted to throw the ball out of bounds very quickly, but the Al Hilal player prevented him from doing so and then the star elbowed him.
C. Ronaldo’s unsportsmanlike action did not go unnoticed by the referee of the match – he immediately showed the football star a red card and expelled C. Ronaldo from the field.
Such a decision by the arbiter upset the Portuguese even more – the player wanted to punch the ball at the arbiter due to an allegedly wrong decision, but managed to control himself in time and left the field with his mouth open.
The Disciplinary Commission of the Saudi Arabian Football Federation, which examined this moment and C.Ronaldo’s written explanation, concluded that, in principle, the red card should not have been given, but decided to give the star a “holiday” – the footballer will have to miss two team matches.
C.Ronaldo started representing the Al Nassr team on December 30, 2022, after signing a two-year contract worth 200 million. euros.
