Al-Nassr lost to their Iranian opponents after Cristiano Ronaldo asked the referee to reverse a penalty that had been given to him.

On Monday night, November 27, the Saudi Pro League team played host to Persepolis in the AFC Champions League. When Ronaldo went down in the area in the opening two minutes of the contest, it appeared like they had gotten off to a great start.

Ali Nemati, a defender, challenged him for the ball, and he collapsed to the ground. The spot was pointed to by Chinese referee Mа Ning, who has been a FIFA international official since 2011.

However, Ronaldo rose to his feet and gestured with a wagging finger to imply that it was a poor choice. After being sent to the VAR monitor, Ning changed his mind.

Ali Lajami, a central defender for Al-Nassr, was sent off in the 17th minute of the match. Also included in the ten players were Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, Marcelo Brozovic, Otavio, and Aymeric Laporte; Persepolis held them to a scoreless tie.

Still, Ronaldo’s sportsmanship was lauded; one fan even went so far as to sаy: “Integrity at its highest level.” Nothing is handed to you; everything is earned. My idol.”

I am respectful. Another person chimed in, saying, “What a man! This guy is winning me over on a daily basis.” This is the mindset that sets him apart. When it comes to temperament and attitude, Ronaldo is unrivaled.

A fifth person commented: “A part of me is happy that my goat is generous and the other part is unhappy cause that’s -1 for our 1000 goal landmark.”
