Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nassr)
April 2025 (Asian Champions League Elite Semifinal)
Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr were eliminated from the Asian Champions League after a shocking 3-2 loss to Japan’s Kawasaki Frontale. Ronaldo was left in tears, extending his major trophy drought in Saudi Arabia.
Despite Ronaldo assisting a key chance and hitting the post, Al Nassr fell behind early and couldn’t recover. Kawasaki’s late goals and heroic goalkeeping denied Ronaldo an injury-time equalizer in a dramatic semifinal exit.
