CRISTIANO RONALDO’s horror week continued as he was tormented by fans chanting for Lionel Messi – and had a run-in with a referee.
The Portuguese superstar drew a blank as Al-Nassr were held to a 1-1 draw by Al Hilal on Friday.
Ronaldo has netted six times already this season in the Saudi Pro League.
But he put up a stinker against the league leaders, picking up a needless booking as Al-Nassr were held to a fourth draw of the campaign.
The 39-year-old was booked just before half-time after a furious confrontation with referee Felix Zwayer.
Ronaldo remonstrated with the official as the teams walked off to the dressing rooms.

He was caught on camera fuming: “We receive three yellow cards. Al Hilal have zero.
“Be fair for both teams!”
Ronaldo was also targeted with Messi chants from the travelling Al Hilal support.
He raised a sarcastic thumbs up towards the supporters as they taunted the Portuguese star in the second half.
