The uniform of Cristiano Ronaldo (37, Al Nasr) was crushed by the feet of some fans.
On the 29th (Korean time), Spanish media 스포츠토토 ‘Marca’ posted a video on social media (SNS) of two fans trampling on Ronaldo’s uniform in a match where Al Nasr lost. This video spread around the world and spread as a video mocking Ronaldo.”
In the video, a fan is filming while stepping on Ronaldo’s Al Nasr jersey number 7 on the floor. Another fan passing by saw the Ronaldo jersey and jumped on it with both feet. You can also hear the laughter of the people watching.
‘Marca’ said, “It’s a video where Ronaldo looks like he’s being mocked by Al Nasr fans. But it was a misunderstanding. Al Ittihad fans bought Ronaldo’s Al Nasr jersey and stepped on it. You can tell by looking at their clothes. Al Nasr wears yellow-blue and Al Ittihad wears yellow-black. They wore yellow-black clothes and trampled on Ronaldo’s uniform.”
The match was the 2022-23 season Saudi Super Cup semifinal held at King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on the 27th. Al Nasr failed to reach the final after losing 1-3 to Al Ittihad. Ronaldo played the full 90 minutes but failed to score a goal or assist.
Ronaldo missed several goal chances. In his prime, he made a mistake in a scoring opportunity that would have been easily scored. Having transferred to Al Nasr in early January, he has not scored in an official match for about a month. He scored two goals only in a friendly match against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
Al Ittihad, who advanced to the final by defeating Al Nasr in the semifinals, won the championship by beating Al-Iba 2-0 in the final of the Saudi Super Cup held on the 30th. Hamdala, who scored the winning goal in the semifinals, scored two goals to lead the championship.
