Cristiano Ronaldo avoided a potential serious injury after he evaded a 'tackle' from a pitch invader minutes before a Saudi Arabia top-flight game.
Ronaldo was going through his paces as Al-Nassr prepared to take on Al-Taawon on Friday, 17th February, at the Mrsool Park.
A pitch invader evaded the stewards and made a beeline for the Portuguese superstar. Ronaldo realised just in time before the invader lunged in with a his two feet up towards Ronaldo.
Ronaldo moved out of the way as stewards finally overpowered the invader. It could have been a catastrophic injury had he not moved out of the way on time.
The 38-year-old shook off the near scare to provide two assists to continue with his imperious starts to life in the Middle East. He has been involved in Al-Nassr's last seven goals. Ronaldo's delicious assist
في تصرفٍ متهور..
