Fans reacted on social media after Al-Nassr suffered a shocking 2-1 loss to Al-Qadsiah in the Saudi Pro League. The two sides clashed at Al-Awwal Park on Friday, November 22.

Stefano Pioli's side suffered their first league defeat of the season in front of their home fans. The Knights of Najd came into the clash without two key players, Aymeric Laporte and Anderson Talisca, who were both ruled out with injuries.

They took the lead in the 32nd minute through Cristiano Ronaldo but were pegged back five minutes later when Julian Quinones scored for Al-Qadsiah. The visitors then went ahead five minutes after the break after a goal from Gabonese striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Al-Nassr fought hard for an equalizer, but Al-Qadsiah held on to their lead, handing the home side their first taste of defeat in the league this season. After the match, fans took to X to share their thoughts on the result.

"Go to Fenerbache Ronaldo don't be stupid," one fan wrote.
"No Laporte and no Talisca... No party," a second fan posted.
"Ronaldo should leave Saudi, the local players are shit. Al-Nassr should've battered them in the 1st half," a third fan commented.
"Ronaldo needs to leave this team," another fan suggested.
"Season over, at least Ronaldo scored," a fan tweeted.
"Finished club and finished manager," another fan chimed in.

Following their loss to Al-Qadsiah, the Knights of Najd now have 22 points from 11 matches. They trail league leaders Al-Hilal, who have played a game less, by six points.


Who will Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr play next?

Al-Nassr will now turn their focus to their next game which will be in the AFC Champions League. The Knights of Najd will play Qatari-based side Al-Gharafa away on Monday, November 25.

They are unbeaten in the AFC Champions League this season, recording four wins and a draw from five games. They are third in the west region of the competition with 10 points, two points behind fellow Saudi club Al-Hilal who are atop the table.

Cristiano Ronaldo, meanwhile, has registered two goals in three AFC Champions League matches this season. He will hope to add to his tally when he leads his side against Al-Gharafa on Monday.
