When life gives you a lemon, you better make lemonade out of it. Well, Cristiano Ronaldo is doing just that. The Al Nassr skipper has been slapped with a two-game ban after his antics during the Al Hilal game last week. However, he hasn’t let the verdict spoil his mood with the player seen enjoying his time away from the game alongside his partner Georgina Rodriguez and their children.

Just days after their private trip to the beach, it seems Georgina is back to work. The influencer was out in Riyadh last night alongside her children as she posted a story from a Disney store in Riyadh with her children looking interested in some of the products. While fans were curious about Cristiano’s absence in the post, the Al Nassr skipper might just be taking some time off.

Cristiano Ronaldo has been quite busy this year with the player pulling double duty for club and country. While the suspension might not be the way he would have wanted to take a break, the player is surely using the time to recharge himself. The Al Nassr skipper is expected to return to action during the Kings Cup semifinals against Al Khaleej.

King’s Cup emerges as the only chance at redemption for Cristiano Ronaldo

Al Nassr has had a rough season this time around, with the side failing to get their hands on any silverware. The team has already crashed out of the AFC Champions Cup and the Super Cup. The Saudi Pro League title also looks out of the team’s reach, with the Knights of Najd 12 points behind table-toppers in the league standings. All the shortcomings leave the team’s hope resting on the King’s Cup!

Cristiano Ronaldo and his side are set to face Al Khaleej in the semi-finals of the tournament on the 27th of April. The side will surely fancy their chances against the opponents as they look to book their berth for the finals. However, a win in the semifinals won’t cut it for the fans. Al Nassr’s failure to win any titles this season has increased the pressure on head coach Luis Castro.
