There was a curious moment in Al Nassr's win over Al-Etiffaq when Cristiano Ronaldo shushed the visiting team's fans who were shouting "Messi" to anger the Portuguese after the Argentinian won his eighth Ballon d'Or.

In the wake of Lionel Messi's eighth Ballon d'Or triumph, some Saudi fans decided to chant the Argentine's name during Al Nassr's 1-0 win over Al Ettifaq in the Saudi Arabian King's Cup.

The Portuguese international did not take kindly to this and shushed the fans, showing his displeasure.

Earlier in the day, the 38-year-old had already made his presence felt by dropping a comment (four "laughing out loud" emojis) on a publication mocking the Argentinian's triumph.

Al Nassr progressed to the quarter-finals of the Arabian Cup thanks to an injury-time goal from Sadio Mane (90th+7).
