Al Riyadh Overview

Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has been left out of Al-Nassr's squad for Monday's Saudi Pro League clash against Al Riyadh. Ahead of the game there had been speculation that Ronaldo would refuse to play in the match after being left frustrated by the way the PIF (Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia) is managing the club, particularly in regards to transfers.

Sadio Mane emerged as the difference-maker for Al-Nassr as Cristiano Ronaldo was left sulking through a narrow 1-0 win over Al-Riyadh.

Cristiano Ronaldo sent out a fiery message after Sadio Mane's strike helped Al-Nassr get back to winning ways in the Saudi Pro League.

Al-Hilal have made their feelings known about perceived 'suspicious' refereeing, urging the Saudi Pro League to consider importing match officials.
