Al-Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo made a remarkable request during yesterday's Cup game.

The Portuguese forward gestured for a referee to be substituted during his team's 1-0 win over Al-Ettifaq.

While Ronaldo's side were successful in the King's Cup of Champions quarter-finals, he was still furious at referee Piero Maza for several decisions.

Al-Ettifaq even had a man sent off in the game, when a rough tackle led to a mass brawl with Jordan Henderson involved.

The game was bad tempered throughout, with Sadio Mane scoring the winner for Al-Nassr.

Ronaldo, despite his best efforts, was not able to get himself on the scoresheet in this one.
