Despite taking a half-time lead in the clash through a scrappy goal from Ronaldo, the Riyadh club completely fell apart in the second half. Sergej Milinkovic-Savic pulled Al-Hilal level before an Aleksandar Mitrovic double gave them a comfortable lead, with Malcom rounding off the scoring to seal a 4-1 victory.
Ronaldo was apoplectic at seeing his team throw away their narrow lead in such an incredible fashion, especially with the way their goalkeeper surrendered the ball to Malcom to let the Brazilian score. The Portuguese star burst into histrionics in the centre circle, throwing in a lewd gesture to add insult to injury.
