  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Ronaldo was not best pleased by the Al-Hilal defender's so-called playacting and pretended he couldn't hear his enraged opponent by cupping his hand to his ear. Former Liverpool star Mane then joined in and could be seen sarcastically clapping Al-Bulayhi. The latter was sent off in the closing stages of the game after receiving two yellow cards but it mattered little as Al-Hilal eased past Al-Nassr in a 3-0 win on Friday night in the Saudi Pro League.

    The result, courtesy of goals from Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and a brace from former Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, puts Al-Hilal seven points clear ahead of second-placed Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League. But with Ronaldo in their team, who has scored an incredible 18 goals in 20 games in all competitions this season, this title race is far from over.
