Al Hilal beat Al Ittihad 1:2 to reach the final of the Saudi Super Cup. Cristiano Ronaldo was sent off for elbowing Al Nasser's Otavio in the first half.

The Portuguese clapped the referees in protest and almost kicked the ball at the head referee of the game. Al Hilal have won 32 consecutive games in all competitions - the most ever in world football. This is Ronaldo's first red card in Saudi Arabia and the 12th overall in his career.
