Photographers captured Cristiano Ronaldo making a disgraceful move during his celebration of Al-Nasr’s winning goal against Al-Akhdood on Thursday in the Saudi League.
This is not the first time that Ronaldo has performed controversial unethical behavior, as he was previously suspended for a match after a disgraceful move he directed at Al-Shabab fans.
After the footage of the Portuguese celebrating in the Al-Akhdood match spread, demands increased for a new punishment to be imposed on him, to be more severe this time in light of his continued violation of traditions and customs in Saudi Arabia.
On the other hand, many considered that the movement made by the 39-year-old was not disgraceful, but rather merely a cultural difference, and there was no need for him to be stopped or subjected to punishment because of it.
رونالدو هنا يكلم علي الحسن بسبب الضغط العالي وافتك الكوره ومررها لرونالدو وسجل الهدف الثاني .. لا اشوف احد يفسرها بمزاجه ويحرف فيها لانها اقسم بالله واضحه يقصد ضغط علي الحسن على الربيعي pic.twitter.com/x9i7qbmX6n

The Disciplinary Committee is supposed to look into the matter within the next few hours to determine whether Ronaldo deserves to be punished again or whether the move was not as disgraceful as some fans imagine.
Ronaldo is preparing to lead Al-Nasr next week against Al-Hilal, and he certainly does not want to be stopped before the derby, which carries the nature of revenge after the loss of Luis Castro’s battalion in the last two matches against the “The Blue Wave.”
It remains to be noted that Ronaldo is the top scorer in the Saudi League this season with 33 goals, a difference of 9 goals from the closest pursuer, Al Hilal striker Alexander Mitrovic.
