“It was successfully controlled.” This is how Al-Nasr’s captain, the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, fell into the trap of the plan drawn up by his compatriot Pedro Emmanuel, the Gulf coach.

Al-Nasr achieved a difficult victory, under the leadership of assistant coach Vitor Severino, over its host Al-Khaleej, with a score of (1-0), in the match that was held at Prince Muhammad bin Fahd Stadium in Dammam, within the 29th round of the Saudi Roshen League competition.
Ronaldo returned to lead Al-Nasr against Al-Khaleej, after his absence from the last match against Al-Fayhaa in round 28, but the Portuguese star scored the worst rating among the international players, after he fell into the offside trap in more than one offside.
With the continued absence of coach Luis Castro, Al-Nasr was able to achieve victory over Al-Khaleej, raising its score to 71 points from 29 matches, maintaining its position in second place in the standings, while the meeting between the two teams will be renewed on May 1, in the semi-finals of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup.
Look at the referee, Ronaldo!
Al-Khaleej was able to limit Ronaldo’s danger by throwing him into the offside trap, as the Al-Nasr captain fell victim to the referee’s flag on 6 occasions, which deprived the player of a goal he scored against Al-Khaleej in the 15th minute, after dribbling the goalkeeper and depositing the ball into the net.
Suffice it to say that during the victory goal, which came with a cross ball from Brozovic, and then Aymeric Laporte deposited it into the net, Ronaldo was also in the offside position, but he moved away from the ball, and it reached the Spanish defender.
Among the many offside opportunities, Ronaldo tried to threaten the Gulf goal in the 45th minute + 4 after taking advantage of a defensive lapse, and shot a dangerous ball into the penalty area, before goalkeeper Cihic blocked it. Then Ronaldo returned with a wonderful performance in the 60th minute, while receiving a cross, to direct a header. It passed close to the goal.

Despite Ronaldo’s attempts, his repeated falling into the offside trap made him the player with the worst rating among Al-Nasr players in the Gulf match, with a rate of (6.1/10), as he lost possession of the ball 12 times, and lost 3 chances in front of goal.
