Cristiano Ronaldo was left fuming on Friday night as his Al-Nassr side were beaten 3-0 by their rivals Al-Hilal in a bitter Saudi Pro League clash – as he sarcastically blew kisses at fans who chanted for Lionel Messi.

The Portuguese was visibly upset at full time as Al-Nassr were beaten 3-0 and failed to make ground at the top of the Saudi top-flight.

Ronaldo was joined by former Liverpool forward Sadio Mane as both started the top of the table match, but neither were able to find the back of the net in 90 minutes.

Al-Hilal starred in front of their home supporters, winning courtesy of goals from Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Aleksandar Mitrovic.

There were several high-profile moments involving Ronaldo as the former Real Madrid, Juventus and Man United star struggled to make an impact.

Chants supporting Lionel Messi – Ronaldo’s career rival – echoed around the King Fahd International Stadium, however, the Al-Nassr star responded sarcastically.
