CRISTIANO RONALDO has suffered another woe in Saudi Arabia after Al-Nassr were knocked out of King Cup.

Ronaldo’s side were beaten by relegation battlers Al Wehd – who sit two placed above the drop and played with ten men from the 53rd minute.

But Frenchman Jean-David Beauguel’s 23rd minute opener was enough to see Ronaldo denied a final in the Middle East.

The former Manchester United forward cut a frustrated figure as the final whistle sounded.

It comes after Al-Nassr were knocked off the top of the league following defeat to Al Hilal with Al-Ittihad leading the way.

Al-Nassr are also out of the Saudi and Riyadh Super Cups.

Ronaldo’s anger was on full display after a 2-0 loss to Al-Hilal, with ex-United striker Odion Ighalo twice scoring.

The legendary striker was also shown a yellow card for a hilarious WWE-style headlock on Gustavo Cuellar.

And he looked particularly miserable as he made his way off the field at the final whistle.

While exiting the pitch, the Portugal legend was greeted by jeers and chants of “Messi, Messi” by Al-Hilal supporters.

And it was then Ronaldo appeared to aim an X-rated gesture as he grabbed and shook his genitals in their direction.

But Al-Nassr insiders claimed the Portugal icon grabbed his crotch because he received a knock in that area during the match.

The Saudi club confirmed this in a subsequent statement, which read: “Ronaldo suffers from an injury.

“His challenge with Gustavo Cuellar, the Al-Hilal player, started with a blow in a very sensitive area.

“This is confirmed information. As for the fans’ explanations, they are free to think whatever they want.”
