Ronaldo mocks teammates again

Ronaldo mocked his teammates for playing like they were sleepwalking.

In the 52nd minute, Al Ittihad launched an attack in the middle. N'Golo Kante received the ball and fired a decisive shot while surrounded by 3 home team players, equalizing 2-2 for Al Ittihad. Just 3 minutes ago, Al Nassr's defense also let Karim Benzema escape, creating an opportunity for the French striker to score.

Cristiano Ronaldo could not hide his disappointment after seeing his teammates concede two goals in a short period of time. The Al Nassr captain grimaced, pressed his palms together and brought them to his face, implying that his teammates were defending like they were sleepwalking.

This is not the first time Ronaldo has made a move that seemed to mock his teammates. In the Super Cup final in August 2024, the Portuguese superstar also put both hands on his face when goalkeeper Bento made a mistake, creating conditions for Malcom to score the winning goal in a 4-1 victory for Al Hilal.

Returning to the match early this morning, Al Nassr suffered a bitter defeat despite leading 2-0 after the first half. Ronaldo and his teammates are 10 points behind Al Ittihad in the rankings, while there are only 4 rounds left in the season.

Despite maintaining his impressive scoring record, Ronaldo is almost certain to end his fourth consecutive year without a trophy. Since winning the 2021 Coppa Italia with Juventus, the Portuguese striker has yet to win any more trophies. In 2023, Al Nassr won the Arab Club Champions Cup, but this was only considered a friendly tournament.

Not only was Al Ittihad "cut off" in the championship race, Al Nassr also fell out of the top 3 in the domestic league and is at risk of not being able to participate in the Asian Cup next season.
