A bad few days for Al-Nassr and Cristiano Ronaldo became much worse on Monday with a shock 1-0 loss to Al-Wehda in the semi-final of the King’s Cup.
The Riyadh giants' best chance of silverware has gone and their league title hopes are looking slim as the season moves into the final stages.
It was another miserable evening for Ronaldo. He caused controversy in last week’s loss to bitter Riyadh rivals Al-Hilal by grabbing his crotch at the end of the game as gleeful home fans chanted Lionel Messi’s name.
This time, there was little mocking at the final whistle; the visiting players and fans were too busy celebrating a famous win and a final appearance against Al-Ittihad and this time, he knew that he had --and missed --his team's best chances.
