Cristiano Ronaldo gomiti avversario e alza pugno a arbitro in sconfitta nella Super Coppa Saudita | Calcio
Cristiano Ronaldo received a red card during a heated Saudi Super Cup semi-final match between Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal. As the clock ran down and Al-Nassr trailing 2-0, Ronaldo clashed with Al-Hilal defender Ali Al-Bulaihi near the touchline. Tensions rose as Ronaldo lost his temper, elbowing his opponent before a brawl nearly broke out. Despite the efforts of his teammate Aymeric Laporte to calm the situation, Ronaldo was eventually shown a red card. His actions led to unsavory scenes on the pitch and a sarcastic applause as he exited. Al-Hilal went on to secure a 2-1 victory and advance to the final, where they will face Al-Ittihad. Meanwhile, former Real Madrid colleague Karim Benzema set a record for the fastest goal in the Saudi Super Cup semi-finals. The final will take place on Thursday, with Al-Nassr fighting for third place the same evening. The incident led to speculation about Ronaldo’s behavior, with Al-Hilal manager Jorge Jesus suggesting it was due to his aversion to losing. The story is available on the sports page for more updates.
