A child provoked Saudi Al-Nasr star player Cristiano Ronaldo during half-time on his way to the dressing room.

It appears, during a video that was widely circulated on social media, that a child in the corridor leading to the dressing room directed provocative words to the Portuguese star, about his famous rival, Lionel Messi.

The incident dates back to the Al-Nasr and Al-Batin match, specifically at half-time, where a child shouted to Cristiano Ronaldo as he headed to the dressing room, saying: “Messi is better than you.”

Ronaldo immediately replied, “Then go and watch him, why you are here?"

The Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo was exposed to many difficult situations because of which he reacted in recent years after a number of matches, especially while he was with Manchester United, but this time he controlled his reaction towards the Saudi child.

Ronaldo was praised by his fans for delicately handling the situation.

However, a video of the incident has gone viral on social media platforms.
