At the half-time break, an irate Ronaldo confronted the referee about the penalty calls, screaming in his face, appearing to mouth the words, “Hey, what is this?”, and “Two times, two times” in recognition of the referee's two glaring errors.
As he made his way into the dressing room, Ronaldo continued his tirade at the referee, yelling at him to “wake up” before he entered the tunnel.
Al-Nassr eventually won the game thanks to two goals in extra time from Aderson Talisca and Marcelo Brozovic to send them into the Group stages of this season’s AFC Champions League.
