FootballRonaldo Blasts VAR Officials for Disallowing His Goal for Al Nassr
- Al-Nassr's Cristiano Ronaldo was furious after his goal was disallowed
- The Portuguese phenom's bullet-like header was disallowed by the VAR
- Ronaldo went on to increase his Saudi Pro League tally by two more goals
Cristiano Ronaldo was visibly irked after the Video Assistant Referee ruled out his bullet-like header during Al-Nassr's Saudi Pro League clash with Al-Shabab.
The Portuguese veteran's scoring streak continued during the heated league tie with the captain opening the scoring with a goal just 13 minutes into the clash.
Ronaldo had expertly dispatched a spot kick, sending the goalkeeper the wrong way to break the game's deadlock, according to Sportstar.
Five minutes later, he found the back of the net again, connecting with a Marcelo Brozovic corner kick to extend the home side's lead.

Ronaldo could have bagged a hat-trick before half-time but for the intervention of the Video Assistant Referee.
The 38-year-old thought he had doubled his side's lead in the 19th minute but his celebration was short-lived, with his effort being ruled out due to a foul.
Ronaldo seemed to have escaped his marker with a slight push before scoring the header and the VAR deemed his actions as excessive, resulting in the goal being disallowed.
Ronaldo's displeasure with the decision was evident, per a video on social media - he vocally expressed his frustration at the officials and used strong language to convey his disagreement, believing the call to be unjust.
