Cristiano Ronaldo receives a two-match suspension from the disciplinary committee. The Portuguese playing legend did not finish the Saudi Super Cup match, the referee gave him a red card after an elbow on an Al-Hilal player.

On the individual side, Cristiano Ronaldo is having a great season. He has scored 29 goals in 25 games and is ruling the Saudi Pro League scorers’ table, adding 10 assists, which is also the most points in the competition.

In addition, the 39-year-old icon added 6 goals in the Asian Champions League and the same number of goals in the Arab Club Champions Cup. Moreover, Ronaldo scored 10 times in nine matches in Portugal’s EURO qualification.

But in terms of team success, things are simply not ideal in the current competition season. In the domestic competition, the title is unlikely to be the result, with second-placed Al Nassr already twelve points behind leaders Al Hilal with seven rounds to go.

Ronaldo’s team also dropped out of the Asian Champions League, and recently lost the semi-final of the Saudi Super Cup against Al Hilal (1: 2).

It should be noted that Ronaldo did not finish this match. The incident for which he received a red card took place in the 86th minute.

The famous Portuguese wanted to quickly throw the ball back into play, but Ali Al Bulayhi planned to take the ball in his hands and when he failed, he at least lightly poked the Portuguese with his chest. Ronaldo hit back with a little more force, whereupon the 34-year-old stopper began to roll theatrically on the ground.

And as the latest information now says, Ronaldo will not play two games after this incident and the red card he received. It is the two-match stoppage that the disciplinary committee is about to impose on him.
