Watch Cristiano Ronaldo’s former team-mate Sergio Ramos gift him first open play goal in Saudi Arabia with howler
CRISTIANO RONALDO’s former Real Madrid team-mate Sergio Romas made a howler to let him score his first open play goal in Saudi Arabia.
The Portuguese star was playing for the Saudi Pro League’s All-Star XI against the Ligue 1 giants during their tour of the Middle East.

Ronaldo had already grabbed his first goal after converting from the spot.
He had been fouled by another old team-mate, Keylor Navas, which led to the penalty.
But it got even better for Ronaldo as he bagged his second goal and his side’s second equaliser of the match.
The 37-year-old saw a header hit the post, and it seemed that the threat had gone.
Lionel Messi gave PSG a third-minute lead, and the side’s second goal came from Marquinhos.
However, Ramos failed to clear the ball and swiped at it.
This allowed Ronaldo to latch onto the loose ball and fire home with his left foot.
Fans slammed the Spaniard’s effort at defending on social media as one wrote: “Ramos is too s***. What was that.”

A second commented: “Why is Ramos doing acrobatics?”
A third said: “Look at the state of that defending from Ramos.”
A fourth added: “Ramos helping out his boy.”
It is Ronaldo’s first non-international match since he joined Al-Nassr following his axing from Manchester United.
PSG are playing in the fixture against the All-Star XI as part of their mid-season tour of the Middle East.
Ronaldo was selected alongside players such as Odion Ighalo, Anderson Talisca and former Arsenal goalkeeper Ospina.
The players have been chosen from clubs in the Saudi Pro League.
