After scoring eight goals in four matches in February, all eyes were on Ronaldo to make the difference in the showdown between Saudi Arabia’s top two sides. But he struggled to get into the game and could not inspire his team to victory.

Ronaldo had one chance before the interval with his snap-shot being well-saved Al-Ittihad goalkeeper Marcelo Grohe, but the Portuguese star was offside anyway.
