Cristiano Ronaldo is facing intense backlash from fans after his crucial penalty miss sent Al Nassr home from the King’s Cup.

In the aftermath of the match, Ronaldo took to his social media account to react, but the fans were not impressed and voiced their disappointment and frustration. Many expressed that Ronaldo's accolades have overshadowed the team's lack of success.

One fan remarked, “I know say nothing concern you with team trophies. You just want to score 1000 useless goals,” highlighting a sentiment that his focus may be misplaced.

Cristiano Ronaldo missed the chance to extend his goal tally for Al-Nassr.

As discussions about his age and performance intensified, another user pointedly questioned, “You’re almost 40 years old, which opportunity to grow again?” This comment reflects growing concerns regarding his ability to compete at a high level as he approaches his 40th birthday.

The criticism didn’t stop there. Some fans humorously urged him not to retire, with one stating, “Please don’t retire. Who will we cook when you retire?” However, others were less forgiving, with comments like “3 years no trophy, are you proud of yourself?” emphasising the frustration over Al Nassr’s ongoing trophy drought.

Ronaldo missed the penalty in added time.

A particularly biting remark noted, “278 days since YouTuber Cristiano Ronaldo last won a trophy. Al Nassr should extend his contract please!! We need him to stay longer in Saudi Arabia.”

Ronaldo's recent performance has brought his legacy into question as he navigates this challenging period in his career.

Ronaldo has 9 goals and 3 assists this season for Al-Nassr in all competitions.

With Al Nassr facing another trophyless campaign, it remains to be seen how both he and the club will respond to the mounting pressure and scrutiny from fans.
