"Worst player I’ve ever seen", "Ban him from playing" - Fans blast 27-year-old star as Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr held to 1-1 draw by Al Hilal

Fans have blasted Cristiano Ronaldo's teammate Ali Al-Hassan after his error prevented Al-Nassr from grabbing a late winner during their 1-1 draw against rivals Al-Hilal. The two teams faced off in their Saudi Pro League clash at Al-Awwal Park on Friday, November 1.

The Knights of Najd got off to the perfect start in the first minute when Anderson Talisca found the bottom-left corner with a well-taken finish. However, Al-Hilal got back into the game in the 77th minute when an unmarked Sergej Milinkovic-Savic headed home from close range to make it 1-1.

Stefano Pioli subbed on Al-Hassan in place of Abdullah Alkhaibari in the 61st minute to make an impact. The 27-year-old defensive midfielder had a golden opportunity to play Mohammed Maran into a one-on-one situation with the keeper in the 90th minute. Unfortunately, he misplaced the simple pass, leading to Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr dropping two important points.

One fan reacted by posting:

"The worst player I’ve ever seen in my life"

Another fan tweeted:

"BAN HIM FROM PLAYING FOOTBALL RIGHT NOW"

Check out how other fans reacted to his performance:

"What is wrong with him," one fan questioned

"The worst player on the field. it's f***ing awful. a disgrace," another added

"Shocking player," one fan commented

"Can’t compete with al Hilal with players like Hassan and Marran," one fan insisted

How did Cristiano Ronaldo fare during Al-Nassr's 1-1 draw against Al-Hilal?

Cristiano Ronaldo was left frustrated at full-time after Al-Nassr were held to a 1-1 draw against Al-Hilal. Let's dive into how the five-time Ballon d'Or winner performed in the SPL fixture:

Ronaldo was unable to register a goal contribution during his 90 minutes on the pitch. The 39-year-old played a deeper role under Pioli's tutelage, completing 29 passes from an attempted 34 with an accuracy of 85 percent. While he created one chance, he was guilty of missing one big chance, landing one shot on target from two attempts.

Despite his disappointing performance tonight, Cristiano Ronaldo has still been Al-Nassr's star player this season. He's garnered nine goals and three assists in 13 appearances across competitions.

The Knights of Najd remain third in the Saudi Pro League standings with 19 points from nine games, six points behind leaders Al-Hilal.
