There was frustration for Cristiano Ronaldo as Al Nassr missed out on the Saudi Pro League title.

Ronaldo's side drew 1-1 against Al Ettifaq, while Al Ittihad was crowned champions following their 3-0 success away to Al Feiha.

Al Nassr has one game remaining this season against Al Fateh, but they can't catch Al Ittihad, who are five points ahead of them at the top of the table.

It was a frustrating game all around for Ronaldo, who wasn't able to get on the scoresheet and was substituted in the 84th minute.

Youssoufou Niakate put Al Ettifaq ahead two minutes before half-time, with Luiz Gustavo equalizing for Al Nassr in the 56th minute.

After leaving Manchester United last November, Ronaldo secured a switch to Al Nassr and made his debut in January.

So far the Portuguese star has scored 14 goals in 16 league games for Al Nassr and is the fifth-highest scorer in the division this season even though he joined midway through the campaign.

However, Al Nassr was top of the table when Ronaldo joined, but they missed out on the league title.
