CRISTIANO RONALDO was spotted shouting at the Al-Nassr bench during Monday's loss to Al-Wehda.
Ronaldo and Co were eliminated from the King Cup after a 1-0 loss to a side who were playing with ten men for most of the second half.
Al-Wehda opened the scoring after just 23 minutes at the KSU Stadium with a stunning overhead kick by Jean-David Beauguel.
CR7 was visibly frustrated at half-time and the cameras caught him yelling and gesticulating towards his own bench as the players made their way to the dressing room.
Things didn't get better for Al-Nassr in the second half, even after Abdullah Al-Hafith's red card in the 53rd minute.
Ronaldo missed three major chances, one of which saw him rattling the crossbar just eight minutes before full-time.

This is the second trophy the Manchester United legend has missed out on after failing to win the Saudi Super Cup.
Dinko Jelicic's side were also knocked off the top of the Saudi Pro League following defeat to Al-Hilal with Al-Ittihad leading the way by three points with a game in hand.
This all adds to a frustrating stint for Ronaldo after he was shown a yellow card for a hilarious WWE-style headlock on Al-Hilal star Gustavo Cuellar last week.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner then courted controversy by appearing to make an obscene gesture towards fans, leading to calls for him to be deported for public indecency.

While exiting the pitch, the Portugal captain had been greeted by jeers and chants of “Messi, Messi” by Al-Hilal fans.
And it was then the 38-year-old appeared to aim an X-rated gesture as he grabbed and shook his genitals in their direction.
Al-Nassr claimed the star forward grabbed his crotch because he received a knock in that area during the match.
