The scandalous episode occurred in the match of the 25th round of the championship of Saudi Arabia between Al-Hilal and Al-Nasr (2-0).
In the 57th minute of the match, Al-Nasr forward Cristiano Ronaldo had a struggle with an Al-Hilal player and choked his opponent to the ground. Interestingly, the Portuguese received only a yellow card for this foul.
It should also be noted that after this defeat, Al-Nasr's chances of winning the league title have dropped considerably. The team is still second in the standings, three points behind Al-Attihad.
