Canceled a day before the China tour, fans 'Exploded'

When Saudi Arabian professional football Al-Nasr suddenly canceled a friendly match in China, his team's superstar Cristiano Ronaldo made a rare public apology to Chinese fans.

Al-Nasr said on the 23rd through the social network service, "The two games scheduled to be played on the 24th and 28th (in Shenzhen, China) have been postponed for reasons beyond the control of the club."

Al-Nasr originally planned to play friendly matches against Shanghai Shenhua on the 24th and Zhejiang FC on the 28th.

Ronaldo appeared at the press conference in person and said, "For me, it's a sad day. I have to say sorry to the Chinese fans, especially the fans who came to Shenzhen," adding, "When you play soccer, things get out of control."

"China is like a second home to me, a second home," he said, stressing, "We haven't canceled the game, and we'll come back."

However, Chinese soccer fans couldn't hide their anger at the sudden cancellation announcement just one day before the match. Some fans flocked to a hotel in downtown Shenzhen where Al-Nasr was staying to protest.

The 'uncontrollable reason' mentioned by Alnasr was Ronaldo's injury. According to local reports, Ronaldo reportedly injured the muscle behind his thigh before and after the tour.

Ronaldo's holding a press conference to run Chinese fans in person is quite different from his visit to Korea in 2019, when there was a controversy over "no show."

Ronaldo, who was a member of Juventus (Italy) at the time, appeared in a match against the K-League starting team at the Seoul World Cup Stadium, but never took the field.

Public opinion in Korea has worsened to the point where a new word "Nalgangdu" that combines Ronaldo and "Nalgangdu" appeared, but Ronaldo has not even offered an apology. Let's watch the video.  토토사이트
