Riyadh. Al Nassr star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo produced a brilliant display of sportsmanship on Monday to help cancel out a penalty chance in the Asian Champions League (ACL) goalless draw against Iran’s Persepolis Club. Ronaldo fell inside the box early in the match and the referee immediately awarded a penalty. But Ronaldo showed honesty and joined Persepolis players protesting against this penalty.
Then referee Ma Ning checked it on a monitor near the pitch and reversed his decision. Al Nassr defender Ali Lajimi was shown a red card just 17 minutes into the match, leaving the team with 10 players on the field. Al Nassr has already qualified for the knockouts as Group E winners.
In the same group, Qatar’s Al Duhail won its first by defeating Tajikistan’s Istiklol 2-0 in which Kenyan striker Michael Olunga scored both the goals. In Group C, Saudi Arabian champions Al Ittihad qualified for the knockout stage after beating Uzbekistan’s AGMK 2-1.
