Cristiano Ronaldo changed the face of the game after the legendary player moved to the Middle East. After enjoying almost two decades in Europe, the latter made a switch to the Saudi Arabian side, Al-Nassr. The player shook the world after penning a mammoth $200-million-year contract, thus making himself the highest-paid player in soccer.

The Riyadh club brought the player in to bolster their ranks and win every silverware they could. Since his transfer, they are pulling all the strings to become the invincibles. As for Ronaldo, the Portuguese striker loves to challenge himself and triumph wherever he goes.
Everyone, including Ronaldo, was confident that the striker would easily fit in the foreign league. Although the 38-year-old has found his goal-scoring ways yet, sometimes things get a bit intense as he is quite known for his temper.
Cristiano Ronaldo fumes again as fans react
Following a humiliating loss last week, the former Real Madrid player lashed out on the field. And it seems his anger hasn’t boiled down yet, as the striker once again fumed on the pitch. During the Kings Cup Champions games against Abha, the striker furiously kicked the ball in the air after the referee blew the whistle for halftime.
One could ignore it, but the referee wasn’t impressed and booked Ronaldo for his actions. This has somehow caught the eye of netizens, who are slamming the star player.
Wait there is no way he is taking the Saudi league this seriously? 😭 this is embarrassing https://t.co/9mDkx4qkvP

Discontent follows at Al-Nassr
Frustration just can’t stop following CR7 as the striker once again received backlash for his anger. Moreover, his performance at the club is also being questioned after he once again endured a goalless night.

Moreover, besides blasting the ball into the crowd, Al-Nassr’s star player was substituted in the 87th minute, which, of course, Ronaldo took quite personally. The player was seen lumbering off the pitch and muttering to himself on the bench.
The player was criticized last time for kicking a bottle and throwing his armband on the pitch. The skipper endured a narrow loss against their league rivals, Al-Ittihad, who moved to the top of the table.
