VIDEO; Fans call Cristiano Ronaldo 'Finished' after his one-on-one chance miss in Al Nassr's defeat
After Ronaldo's one-on-one miss in Al Nassr's defeat to Al Taawoun, angry supporters are labeling him as 'past his prime'.
Despite leading his team to victory in the Arab Club Champions Cup the previous weekend, Ronaldo's squad has encountered consecutive losses in the Saudi Pro League.
Under the leadership of Steven Gerrard, Al Ettifaq managed a 2-1 victory over Al Nassr on Monday, while Al Taawoun also triumphed over them on Friday. Leandre Tawamba opened the scoring in the 20th minute, and in the dying moments of added time, Ahmed Bahusayn secured the visiting team three crucial points.
The recipient of five Ballon d'Or awards struggled to make an impact during the game and was at fault for squandering a prime opportunity shortly after the 60-minute mark, only to be subsequently flagged offside.
Ronaldo found himself clear on goal and made an effort to bypass the goalkeeper, but his execution faltered, leading to the ball being eventually cleared.

Had the 38-year-old scored, it wouldn't have counted as he was offside. But that didn't stop supporters on social media from mocking the superstar forward.
One simply wrote: "Finished."
A second Twitter user added: "Man is finished."
A third tweeted: "Finished player."
A fourth said: "Man is so finished."
Another commented: "Washed up player..."
Al Nassr are currently hovering one place above the relegation zone as they occupy 15th spot, having lost their opening two league games of the season.
