Al Nassr: Garcia criticize Ronaldo and co after Al-Feiha draw

The 11th-placed side held Al Nassr to a draw in the Saudi Pro League.

Al Nassr boss Rudi Garcia has admitted his players made a below-par performance against Al Feiha.

Cristiano Ronaldo stormed off the pitch after his side’s 0-0 draw against their 11th-placed rivals. The Portuguese superstar wasn’t able to help his side win the game as they drifted further away from the Saudi League’s top-spot.

Speaking after the game, Garcia criticized Al Nassr players.

“The result is definitely bad, and we are not happy,” Garcia told Saudi Sports Company (SSC) post-match.

He added: “I don’t feel satisfied with the players’ performance. I asked them to play at the same level as the last game [a 5-0 win over Al-Adalah], but this didn’t happen.

“There are seven games left, we will try to recover, and we realize that it’s not easy after we lost two points, but everything is possible.”

Al Nassr have slipped three points behind Al Ittihad at the top of the league table. Since joining the club, Ronaldo has scored 11 goals in ten Saudi Pro League games. But, that hasn’t been enough to turn the tide in the title race.

After the game, Al Feiha’s Twitter account mocked Ronaldo with an edited image of their captain Sami Al-Khaibari sitting in front of Ronaldo at a chess table. The post referenced Ronaldo and Lionel Messi’s famous advertisement photo during the 2022 World Cup.
