Cristiano Ronaldo's hilarious reaction spotted as Al Nassr unveil huge tifo for team-mate

Al Nassr fans have unveiled a new tifo dedicated to midfielder Marcelo Brozovic - and Cristiano Ronaldo's hilarious reaction was spotted by the TV cameras.

The tifo was unveiled before Al Nassr's Saudi Pro League clash against Abha on Friday, which Ronaldo's side drew 2-2.

It was a rare game without a goal for the Portuguese icon, however, with Otavio and Anderson Talisca getting on the scoresheet.

Former Inter Milan star Brozovic assisted Otavio for the first goal on three minutes, which will no doubt have pleased fans inside the Al-Awwal Park.

That is because the crowd unveiled a huge, stand-long tifo for the Croatia international after his impressive start to life in Saudi Arabia.

He has been a consistent presence in the centre of midfield for Luis Castro's side, with Al Nassr third in the Saudi Pro League table.

The unveiling of the tifo was accompanied by a loud 'Boom' shout from Al Nassr supporters - and the display certainly seemed to please Brozovic, even if he did look slightly sheepish.

After glancing around the stadium, the 33-year-old turned to applaud the home support for their gesture.

The camera then panned across to Talisca, who seemed to be taking in the display for himself before smiling at one of his team-mates.

Then came Ronaldo, who gave a wry smile before turning to take the kick-off.

The 38-year-old's reaction appeared to be a mixture of not being sure what was going on, coupled with a show of respect for the combination shown by the crowd.

Unfortunately for Al Nassr, though, they couldn't secure victory, with Abha coming from two goals down to equalise late on. Former Lyon striker Karl Toko-Ekambi netted in the second minute of stoppage time.

They currently sit in third place in the table, three points behind surprise league leaders Al Taawon.
