A spectacular goal from the Chilean striker by French striker Jean-David Beauguel deprived the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo of playing in the final of the King's Cup of Saudi Arabia, after losing this Monday 0-1 against Al Wehda in the semifinals.
Not even the more than forty minutes with which Al Nassr had one more man due to the expulsion of defender Abdullah Al Hafith for a double yellow card prevented the elimination of the team led by the Portuguese star.
And that Cristiano Ronaldo, who was already left out of the final of the Saudi Super Cup last January after losing in the semifinals against Al-Ittihad, tried everything to prevent defeat.
In fact, Cristiano Ronaldo had Al Nassr's best chance to level the contest after hitting the crossbar after 82 minutes.
The same lack of aim that weighed down the local team throughout the match, which despite dominating the game, was unable to respond to the goal from Frenchman Jean-David Beauguel, who established after 23 minutes what would ultimately be the final 0- 1 to culminate with a sensational Chilean a cross from Costa Rican Óscar Duarte.
A score that unleashed the anger of the Portuguese, who visibly upset did not hesitate to ask for explanations from the Croatian coach Dinko Jelicic, who replaced the dismissed Rudi Garcia on April 13, at the end of the first forty-five minutes.
Result that Al Nassr tried to turn around, albeit unsuccessfully, in a second half that became a continuous siege of the local team, especially in the final minutes in which the VAR had to come into action on several occasions, without that in none of them did he find anything punishable to report in the Al Wehda area.
