Ronaldo's Conduct at an Al Nassr Match Draws Attention and Controversy
Once again, Portuguese football icon Ronaldo has made headlines due to his actions during an Al Nassr game. Social media videos depict the superstar apparently clutching his groin while exiting the field amidst jeers from Al Hilal supporters, who were chanting the name of his rival, Messi.
Saudi attorney Nouf bint Ahmed shared one such video on Twitter, condemning Ronaldo's behavior and demanding that he face legal consequences. In her post, she referred to his actions as a 'crime' and cited public decency laws, which require foreigners committing such acts to be detained and expelled from the country.
She also stated her intention to file a case with the public prosecution in the Kingdom.
Many have expressed support for Ronaldo on social media, including his club Al Nassr, which claimed the gesture was due to an injury in the groin area caused by a challenge from an Al Hilal player, as reported by Arab News.
The match between Al Nassr and Al Hilal concluded with a 2-0 defeat for Ronaldo's team.
