Ronaldo receives no Super Cup silver after devastating defeat to Al-Hilal

Cristiano Ronaldo stormed out of the Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz Stadium without collecting his silver medal after his Al-Nassr side were thrashed 4-1 in Saturday's Saudi Super Cup final, Report informs referring to the Daily Mail.

The 39-year-old had been hoping to win his second trophy since moving to Saudi Arabia in January 2023 - after last season's triumph in the Arab Club Champions Cup.

Ronaldo scored his first goal of the season in Wednesday's 2-0 Super Cup semi-final win over Al-Taawoun and found the net again just before half-time to fire Al-Nassr 1-0 up in Saturday's final.

But Al-Hilal - who won the Saudi Pro League last season without losing a single game - hit back with four second-half goals, including two by ex-Fulham hitman Aleksandar Mitrovic.

Captain Ronaldo was visibly unimpressed as the goals continued to hit the net.

In Ronaldo's defence, Al-Hilal's fourth goal was the result of some pretty awful play by his team-mates.

After a dismal attempt at playing out from the back resulted in goalkeeper Bento losing the ball to Malcom on the edge of the six-yard box, Ronaldo stood in the centre circle, put his hands together and gestured to his team-mates that they had been 'sleeping'.

After the game, Al-Nassr's players were presented with medals for coming second in the four-team tournament.

But former Real Madrid and Man United star Ronaldo had no interest in collecting his, so he walked out of the stadium empty-handed.

Ronaldo's time at Al-Nassr has been a mixed bag to date.

His scoring record is very impressive. He has now bagged 66 times in 72 matches for the Riyadh outfit and he won last season's Saudi Pro League Golden Boot.

However, Al-Nassr finished five points behind champions Al-Ittihad in Ronaldo's first season - having topped the table prior to his arrival - and they then ended 14 points below Al-Hilal in the 2023-24 campaign.
