Cristiano Ronaldo leaves opponent furious after rubbing his sweat all over rival’s face

Al-Nassr won the Arab Club Champions Cup on Saturday – their first trophy since Cristiano Ronaldo joined the club – but face a huge title fight in the Saudi Pro League

Cristiano Ronaldo has raised eyebrows after a cheeky distraction tactic was spotted by fans on social media.

The five-time Ballon d’Or winner appeared to wipe sweat on a rival’s face just before a set piece during Al-Nassr’s Arab Club Champions Cup final victory against Al-Hilal on Saturday. Al-Nassr won the game 2-1 in extra time thanks to a brace from Ronaldo.

In the viral video, Ronaldo is spotted rubbing his lower back and looking at Saudi Arabia international Ali Al-Bulaihi. He then touches Al-Bulaihi’s face before the Al-Hilal defender reacts by nudging the Portuguese superstar away and appearing to tell him off.

Al-Nassr’s triumph in the Arab Club Champions Cup final means Ronaldo has won his first trophy since moving to the Saudi Pro League in January. Several top players have followed Ronaldo to the Arab country since his huge move from Manchester United.
