Cristiano Ronaldo grew visibly irritated on Monday following his substitution during Al-Nassr's match against Al-Ettifaq. The Portuguese star was substituted at halftime, trailing 2-0, and his dissatisfaction was evident as he removed his captain's armband and rushed towards the tunnel. Al-Nassr, playing with 10 men, ultimately won the game 3-2.
Ange Postecoglu, the coach, explained that they opted for a different strategy, acknowledging Ronaldo's infrequent appearances in recent times. Despite being the team's most crucial player, Postecoglu decided to remove him from the game, a move that proved successful for Al-Nassr. The comeback began in the 74th minute when Sadio Mane scored, followed by Abdulelah Al-Amri's goal in the subsequent three minutes.
Mane sealed the win with a late goal, which initially appeared offside but was later validated by a VAR review.
