"Ghosting in the big games" - Lionel Messi fans mock Cristiano Ronaldo after Al Nassr lose to Al Ittihad
Cristiano Ronaldo endured a difficult outing for Al Nassr on Thursday 9 March and fans of his arch-rival Lionel Messi have trolled him on social media.
Ronaldo captained his club in their crucial Saudi Pro League encounter against Al Ittihad, but couldnt spur them on to victory.
The Portuguese legend got just one shot on target, completed a mer 67 of his passes and lost possession 15 times.
An 80th-minute goal from former Corinthians forward Romarinho gave Al Ittihad a win that lifted them to the top of the Saudi Pro League points table.
Al-Numoor are now a point clear of Al-Nassr after 20 matches.
Following the match, Cristiano Ronaldo received plenty of flak on Twitter for his inability to lead his side to a win, largely from fans of Lionel Messi.
While Messis fans enjoyed a field day mocking Ronaldo, its worth noting that La Pulga also endured a difficult outing only on Wednesday.
