Portuguese coach Carlos Carvalhal has slammed local critics of Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo.
Questions have been raised about Ronaldo's place in Portugal's XI after a disappointing Nations League this week.
But Al Wahda coach Carvalhal said on social media: "Ingratitude.
"One of the best players of all time, who has always played with pride for our national team, when perhaps for the first time, he needs support... many turn their backs and only criticise him.
"Shameful... Forca Portugal, forca CR7."
