Cristiano Ronaldo got booked for a yellow card after he lost his head during Al Nassr win over Abha

In their Saudi Arabian Professional League match, Al Nassr beat Abha 3-1 on Tuesday night. 

Cristiano Ronaldo was upset and temporarily lost his composure throughout the game despite neither scoring nor making an assist.

ESPN posted a footage of the Portuguese striker being given a yellow card for acting in a highly unsportsmanlike manner on the field.

The footage seems to show that the referee called time on the first half as Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates began a counterattack and the additional time had already passed.

The 38-year-old scooped up the ball and violently kicked it away and the referee issued him a yellow card for disobeying the rule of the game.

The halftime whistle may be blown because the time has passed and the referee was operating in accordance with the game's regulations.

Given his reputation as a player, one would not anticipate Cristiano Ronaldo to have this tendency. He did a terrible thing by displaying such character when his side was comfortably up in the first half.
