Cristiano Ronaldo is embroiled in one more controversy, this time for something for which he is not even fully responsible. It is no secret that the legend of Portugal is one of the best players in the world even at 38 years of age, in addition to being one of the best, he is also the most popular player in the world, since no one in the whole world planet has more followers than him on social networks, both on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

Now, with his new team in Saudi Arabia, at Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo has finally begun to shine, after a somewhat slow start. Cristiano arrived at Al Nassr at the beginning of January, and it wasn't until February that he gradually began to let go, to such an extent that he scored four goals a couple of games ago. However, not everything is being a joy for the legend of Real Madrid and the English giant Manchester United, as he is now a trend in networks due to a couple of controversies.

Cristiano Ronaldo is still one of the best, although, the truth is that after failing with the Portuguese team in the World Cup in Qatar and having an incident with Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo decided to leave for football in the Middle East to continue his career. He signed for Al-Nassr in exchange for 200 million euros per season. Now, the "Bug" is involved in a scandal over the suspicious victory of his team in Saudi Arabia.

 

Although the former Real Madrid striker began to shine in Arab football and was considered the best player of February, as he scored eight goals and provided two assists, he is now in the eye of the hurricane after his team's victory against Al Batin. The bottom of the table gave the powerful team of CR7 more than one problem, which achieved victory in the additional minutes.

The controversy originated because the referee ordered 12 minutes of addition, when the game was 1-0 in favor of the visit. Al Batin's coach did not believe what happened and only managed to laugh at the disproportionate added time. At 93 the tie came, at 112 the winning goal and at 114 the new leader of the Saudi Arabian league sealed the victory.

Will Cristiano Ronaldo play in the 2026 World Cup?

The 38-year-old striker signed a contract with the Arab club until 2025, that is, until he turns 40. On more than one occasion he said that he would like to play in the World Cup that will take place between the United States, Mexico and Canada. He will remain to know if they give him the physical conditions to gravitate in the elite.
