Al Nassr 1-4 Al Hilal: Reactions as Cristiano Ronaldo blasts teammates for sleeping in Saudi Super Cup final

On Saturday, August 17, 2024, Al-Nassr lost 1-4 against Al-Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup final, suffering a severe defeat.

Just before halftime, Cristiano Ronaldo gave Al-Nassr the lead, and the game looked hopeful for the runners-up last season.

But Al-Hilal, the visiting team, answered with four goals in the second half, resulting in a remarkable turnaround.

Aleksandar Mitrović, Malcom, and Sergej Milinković-Savić (who scored twice) were the scorers for Al-Hilal.

Cristiano Ronaldo appears to be fed up with his present circumstances in Saudi Arabia.

The legend at last shown symptoms of frustration in the 2024 Saudi Super Cup following an ugly 4-1 loss against Al Hilal.

Despite spending more than 18 months playing in Saudi Arabia with Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo has yet to win a championship.

In addition, CR7 has a horrible record against Al Hilal, having lost seven of his eight meetings against the opponent.

Ronaldo made a highly contentious gesture by waving his arms and signaling that the game was over when he noticed that his colleagues were not giving it their all on the field.

This was taken on social media as a strong indication that he might be fed up with the circumstances.

Ronaldo then launched a vicious attack on Al Nassr's players in the same moment, claiming they were dozing off as the third goal was scored.
