Cristiano Ronaldo's three word blast to officials after being denied another Al Nassr hat-trick

Cristiano Ronaldo was left frustrated during Al Nassr's 4-0 win over Al Shabab after a refereeing decision cost him a hat-trick.

Ronaldo has resurrected his form in the Middle East this season having played a crucial role in Al Nassr's run to Arab Club Champions Cup glory this summer. Last Friday, the 38-year-old opened his account in the Saudi Pro League with a hat-trick and an assist in the 5-0 thrashing of Al Fateh.

The Portuguese star felt he should have replicated this feat on Tuesday night but was denied after he was adjudged to have fouled his opponent. Ronaldo had given his team the lead from the spot and he thought he had doubled the advantage with a header at the back post.

However, the referee decided he had pushed the defender to gain an advantage and a free-kick was awarded. A frustrated Ronaldo was visibly angry with the officiating decision and appeared to shout: "Always against me," towards the officials in protest.

Having suffered two losses in as many matches to start the season, Al Nassr are back on track and have moved up to sixth in the Pro League. They are currently six points behind Al Ittihad who lead the way with a 100 per cent record from four games.
