While he was going in the tunnel, an Al-Hilal fan threw a jersey at Ronaldo. The Al Nassr forward was not able to control his emotions he picked up the jersey before seemingly rubbing it against his crotch and throwing it back towards the crowd in frustration

AL Nassr are second in the Saudi Pro League, seven points adrift of leaders Al Hilal after 19 games.
