Al Nassr striker, Cristiano Ronaldo showed his sporting side on Monday, as he implored a referee to overturn a penalty decision in favour of his team.
Ronaldo and his team were playing Persepolis in an AFC Champions League fixture.
The incident happened just two minutes into the match.
Ronaldo initially tried a first-time shot but when that is blocked, he goes in search of it again as it takes a deflection in the box.
He is second to the ball and tumbles over, with the referee quickly pointing to the penalty spot to the incredulity of Persepolis’ players.
Replays showed that there had been no contact on Ronaldo and credit to the Portuguese superstar he was quickly on his feet and wagging his finger to tell the referee to correct his decision.
