Cristiano Ronaldo appears to have gotten over Al-Nassr's narrow defeat to Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League as the Portuguese phenomenon took to the gym.

The former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward was handed his first defeat in the Saudi top flight on Thursday evening after his side slipped to a 1-0 loss.

The result did not only dent Ronaldo's near-perfect record in the Saudi Pro League but also saw his side Al-Nassr relinquish their top spot to the same opposition, per Mirror.

According to talkSPORT, the five-time Ballon d'Or channelled his frustration at a cluster of bottles near the touchline, underlining his disappointment with the results.

Al-Nassr slip to damaging defeat

Cristiano Ronaldo tasted his first Saudi Pro League defeat since joining Al-Nassr after his side suffered a painful one-nil defeat at Al-Ittihad.

The 38-year-old had a near-perfect record since swapping Europe for the Middle East until Nuno Espirito's side gave him a reality check on Thursday evening.

In what was a top-of-the-table clash, Brazilian forward Romarinho's second-half strike proved the difference between the two top-performing sides in the Saudi top flight.
