Local reports indicated that the Saudi Football Association is about to open an investigation due to an inappropriate gesture made by Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, Al-Nasr striker, which caused a great uproar in the Kingdom.
Video clips spread across the Internet of the 39-year-old Portuguese player making an inappropriate gesture while celebrating his team’s 3-2 victory over Al-Shabab, yesterday evening, Sunday, in the Saudi Football League.
Before that, Ronaldo briefly placed his hand on his ear while the name of his traditional rival, “Messi,” was chanted in the stands.
Saudi media reports confirmed that this inappropriate reference was not shown on television, but the video clips spread across the Internet and sparked very angry reactions.
About Ronaldo's shot
Muhammad Al-Sheikh: I am afraid that I will be suspended if I criticize the player 🫣.. The move cannot be justified. Even the European Union punished Ronaldo when he made a similar move against Atletico Madrid #Action_with_Walid #Al-Nasr_Al-Shabab #Disciplinary_and_Ethics_Committee

“If the Disciplinary Committee allowed itself to intervene, it would open the door for all clubs and fans.”
What a desperate defense of an immoral movement
