Shocking Move: Cristiano Ronaldo in Furious Spat as He Slams Referee & Pushes Away Man Taking Selfie

Cristiano Ronaldo has vented his frustrations towards officials during Al-Nassr's 4-2 win against Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai, with the Portuguese superstar appearing to shout at the referee telling him to 'wake up'.

His side came back from going 2-1 down to book their place in the group stages of the Asian Champions League, with the five-time Ballon d'Or winner failing to get on the score sheet, but did assist Marcelo Brozovic for his side's fourth goal.

But at times during the match, Ronaldo cut a discontent figure remonstrating with the officials after his side had multiple penalty shouts turned down by the officials.

The 38-year-old was subsequently seen yelling towards the referee, and appeared to be saying 'wake up' while waving his arms before strutting away.

He was then pictured in a separate video pushing a man who tried to take a selfie with the former Real Madrid and Man United star out of his way as he strutted off the field.

Ronaldo's side has endured a frustrating start to the Saudi Pro League season, having lost both of their opening games to Al-Ettifaq and Al-Taawon.

While the five-time Champions League winner has scored 20 goals in 27 games across all competitions for the Saudi side since he arrived in January last year, it's been a difficult start to life in the Middle East for him.

His side narrowly missed out on winning the Saudi Pro League last season, with their rivals Al-Ittihad going on to overtake them to clinch the title.

Ronaldo was left distraught as his first season ended without a trophy and not long before that, there were suggestions that he wanted to leave the club, less than a year after joining.

Tonight's fury was the latest in several outbursts we've seen from Ronaldo, who was seen fuming at his bench after his side crashed out of the King Cup Champions.

He was also seen kicking out at a water bottle, while also caught on video throwing water at a cameraman.

There is good news for Ronaldo now though, with the victory seeing his side become one of the three Saudi Pro League teams that have now qualified for the AFC Champions League, joining Al-Ittihad and cup winners Al-Hilal.

His side will take on Al-Fateh on Friday in the Saudi Pro League before taking on Al-Shabab next week.
