Ronaldo misses penalty to thwart Al-Nasser in Copa del Rey VIDEO  - 1

Missing Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty was fatal for Al-Nasser and the team was eliminated in the 1/8-finals of the Royal Cup of Champions in Saudi Arabia, reported sportal.bg.

The Portuguese shot over the goal from the penalty spot in stoppage time and his team lost 1-0 to Al-Taawon.

This is the second successive disappointment for Al-Nasser after the 3-3 draw against newcomers Al-Kholud in the league a few days ago. The match was played by the Bulgarian referee Georgi Kabakov, and Ronaldo did not play.

Today, Stefano Pioli's team was the absolute favorite, but failed again. In the second half, Sadio Mane and Ottavio appeared in the game, which also did not help.

The goal for the visitors was scored by Flavio in the 71st minute. At the very end of the match, Ronaldo could have equalized, but he shot off target.

Al-Hilal had no problems against Al-Tai and won 4:1. Al-Raid and Al-Fayha also qualified for the 1/4-finals.

Tomorrow is the last round of 16 match between Al-Jabalain and Al-Etifaq.
