Cristiano Ronaldo was unable to ship Al Nassr into the Saudi Tremendous Cup remaining as they went down 3-1 to Al Ittihad.
Objectives for Romarinho, Abderrazzaq Hamed Allah and Muhannad Al Shanqiti noticed Al Ittihad, coached by former Wolves and Tottenham boss Nuno Espirito Santo, arrange a showdown with Al-Fayha in Riyadh.
Ronaldo performed the complete match on Thursday, coming near an equaliser within the first half when he headed straight at Al Ittihad goalkeeper Marcelo Grohe.
Al Ittihad compounded his frustrations by racing down the opposite finish to make it 2-0, although Talisca pulled one again for Al Nassr after the break.
Ronaldo drilled a free-kick simply over previous to Talisca’s strike, but regardless of piling on the stress, Al Nassr had been opened up once more late on, with Al Shanqiti sealing Al Ittihad’s development.
It means Ronaldo’s await a primary official purpose in Saudi Arabia will stretch into a 3rd match.
