Cristiano Ronaldo's wait for his next trophy was prolonged on Tuesday night as Al-Nassr crashed out of the King's Cup.
The sporting icon, now 40, has not won a single competitive tournament in the Middle East since making the big money move from Manchester United in December 2022.
And Ronaldo's latest heartache came at the hands of his former team-mate Karim Benzema, who spearheaded Al-Ittihad to a win over Al-Nassr in the King's Cup round of 16 last night.
The Portuguese legend's men got off to the worst possible start when Benzema, who's bagged four goals so far this season, put the visitors ahead with a side-footed effort on 15 minutes.
