While Ronaldo’s two-goal display left fans in awe, it’s an entirely different incident that has come into the spotlight in the aftermath of the match. Following the game, Al Nassr’s boss, Luis Castro, received unsettling news. The Portuguese manager’s small yet crucial error has resulted in him being fined.

Apparently, the disciplinary committee of the Roshn Saudi League has fined Castro for not wearing an identification card inside the stadium during their match against Al Ahli. This small mistake would require Castro to pay a fine of up to 20 thousand riyals or $5332. From the looks of it, the SPL spares no one, as they are serious about their administrative matters.

Certainly, Castro would need to send a cheque to the disciplinary committee. It is also a stark reminder to other players and coaches that there are consequences for breaking the rules. This development likely added to Castro’s frustration following the match, but what exactly led to the heated incident? Let’s dive deeper.
