Check his mental state - Ronaldo acts crazy as talks to a ghost after Al-Nassr's AFC Champions League loss
Al-Nassr crashed out of the AFC Champions League on Wednesday following their 3-2 defeat to Kawasaki.
The Saudi Arabian club faced Kawasaki in the AFC Champions League semi-final, with the likes of Sadio Mane, Jhon Duran and Ronaldo starting the game.
Despite controlling 75 percent of possession and taking 21 shots, the team is heading towards a trophyless season.
Ronaldo's sad moment
According to the Sun, Ronaldo was visibly distraught on the field, his shoulders repeatedly rising and falling as he struggled to contain his tears.
The Portugal legend seemed to be arguing with himself, replaying several missed opportunities in his mind.
