"Running like headless chicken","He is so bad" - Fans slam Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr teammate despite 3-1 win vs Neom

Al-Nassr fans on social media have called out Sadio Mane despite their 3-1 win over Neom SC. Both sides were in action in the Saudi Pro League on Saturday, November 8.

After a goalless first half, Angelo broke the deadlock for the Knight of Najd in the 47th minute. The forward was the quickest to react to a mistimed free kick by Cristiano Ronaldo, placing his effort beyond Luis Maximiano's reach.

Ronaldo scored from the penalty spot to make the scoreline 2-0 in favor of the visitors in the 65th minute. In the 84th minute, Ahmed Abdu scored to give Neom SC a much-needed lifeline.

However, Joao Felix rifled his strike into the back of the net to put the game beyond the reach of the hosts. Thus, the game ended 3-1 in favor of Al-Nassr.

Meanwhile, Mane registered four key passes, created one big chance, but lost possession of the ball 18 times (via Sofascore). In the game's aftermath, fans on X criticized his performance, with one tweeting:

"Tbvh… if we player against bigger teams, we’ll see some problems. Sadio Mane & Coman are looking like liabilities honestly. Running like headless chicken Disgusting!!."

@TheNassrZone Mane playing 90 minutes every game is ridiculous. JJ will nerver give Ghareeb the real chance in SPL. Coach always doing late and same substitution no matter we are winning or game is on the draw. It could cost us league title.

@TheNassrZone If Al Nassr wants to win the title, they must buy a DM in January! Al Nassr loves to concede silly goals. Mané was terrible today. Ronaldo didn't have his best game either.
