Cristiano Ronaldo had a telling reaction after watching Al Nassr lose a cup final to Al Hilal on Saturday.

Al Nassr were humbled by Al Hilal, who ran out 4-1 winners in Abha, Saudi Arabia, to win the Saudi Super Cup.

But Ronaldo's side took the lead through the man himself as he found the back of the net from close range just before the break.

But Al Hilal fired back in the second-half with four goals without reply.

Ex-Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic levelled proceedings before former Premier League forward Aleksandar Mitrovic bagged a quick-fire brace. Malcom added a fourth in the 72nd minute.

Al Nassr's defeat frustrated Ronaldo, whose reaction after Mitrovic's second goal spoke volumes.

The 39-year-old made a gesture to suggest the game was over and seemed to hit out at his own teammates as he cut an animated figure on the pitch.

He made a sleeping gesture in an apparent dig at his teammate before seemingly signalling to the Al Nassr players that they sh*t themselves.

He could be seen making a lewd gesture after Al Nassr conceded a goal.



Ronaldo disrespects his teammates by indicating that they're "Asleep".

Always playing the Victim card.
Toxic player , disgusting Captain.

Ronaldo has now lost the Saudi Super Cup in three consecutive seasons.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner will look to return to winning ways when his side face Al Raed next Thursday in their Saudi Pro League opener.

Al Nassr finished behind eventual winners Al Hilal in the league last season.

The Portuguese star has yet to inspire his side to Saudi Pro League glory, having won league titles in England, Spain and Italy, with Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus respectively.

His only trophy triumph with Al Nassr is the Arab Club Champions Cup.
