Controversial Gesture of Cristiano Ronaldo During Riyadh Season Cup Final
In a dramatic turn of events during the Riyadh Season Cup final, Cristiano Ronaldo found himself at the centre of controversy after his Al Nassr side suffered a 2-0 defeat against Al-Hilal.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner, known for his fiery temperament, was unable to rally his team to victory as Al-Hilal clinched the title with a convincing performance.
Building the controversy, as Cristiano Ronaldo was making his way towards the tunnel post-match, a startling incident unfolded when a fan from the stands tossed an Al-Hilal shirt in his direction. In response, Ronaldo picked up the shirt and gestured obscenely towards the fan, a moment captured on video.
Despite Ronaldo’s individual brilliance throughout the season, where he amassed an impressive tally of 30 goals and 11 assists, Al Nassr remains in second place in the points table, trailing Al-Hilal by seven points after 19 matches.
