Cristiano Ronaldo sent off for elbowing player©X (Twitter)
One of the greatest footballers of all time, Cristiano Ronaldo had an unforgettable night after being sent off for elbowing an opponent. While playing for Al Nasr, Ronaldo was sent off after elbowing an Al Hilal player, and the referee gave him a direct red card. However, it was Ronaldo’s actions after receiving the red card that shocked social media. Angry at the referee’s red card decision, Ronaldo appeared to want to punch and kick the referee, but ultimately decided against it.
The result went in Al Hilal’s favour, with Al Nasser bowing out of the Saudi Super Cup with a 1-2 defeat. For Al Nasr, Sadio Mane was the only scorer. Here’s video of the moment Ronaldo lost his cool:

Even Al Hilal coach Jorge Jesus was asked about Ronaldo’s performance during the game. Jesus asserted that Ronaldo should behave in a way that he is not used to losing.
“He is one of the most important players in the world and a role model for many people, but during his career he was not used to losing, so it was natural and natural that he lost his temper when he lost. “He loses emotional and mental focus in losing games,” he said.
This is the 12th time in Ronaldo’s career that he has been sent off in a game. So far this season, Ronaldo has scored 36 goals for Al Nasr in 37 games and contributed 12 assists to his teammates.
