Cristiano Ronaldo has brought a football revolution to Saudi Arabia since his arrival at Al-Nassr. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner brought big attention to the Saudi Pro League as several other star footballers also followed his footsteps.
The Portuguese superstar has also been performing well on the field with his incredible goal-scoring abilities. However, one thing continues to bother him – his arch-nemesis for over a decade in European football.
The two football greats play in different continents now but the Messi aura continues to haunt Ronaldo.
The opposition fans have often seen taunting the Al-Nassr’s star with ‘Messi-Messi’ chants which frustrated the 39-year-old on multiple occasions. It did happen once again when Ronaldo was in action against Al-Ahli Saudi in the SPL match. The Al Nassr skipper scored a penalty to help his team register a 1-0 win but during the match, the home fans did taunt him with Messi chants when he showed his disagreement with one of the referee’s decisions.
