CRISTIANO RONALDO showed there was no love lost between himself and Angel Di Maria after his former Real Madrid team-mate embarrassed him with a cheeky skill.
During a friendly match between Al-Nassr and Benfica, Di Maria took down a loose ball from the air.

The Argentine then noticed Ronaldo chasing him down from behind.
But before the 38-year-old could get to the ball, Di Maria proceeded to flick the ball over his head.
Al-Nassr ace Ronaldo did not take the dent to his pride lightly and proceeded to immediately clatter into Di Maria in a revenge tackle.
Reacting to the incident, one fan said: “Ronaldo can’t catch a break.”
A second wrote: “Someone think about CR7.”
Another fan took aim at Ronaldo following his comments about the Saudi Pro League being “better” than Major League Soccer and will soon catch up to Europe.
They sarcastically said: “No, but the Saudi league is better than Europe.”
While another quipped: “And to think that Cristiano said that the Arab league is the best.”

Ronaldo and Di Maria shared the stage at the Bernabeu for four years between 2010 and 2014.
While there the pair won six trophies, including the Champions League, La Liga and Uefa Super Cup.
Di Maria ended his stay in Spain to head to Ronaldo’s former team Manchester United, but flopped and was sold to Paris Saint-Germain the following summer.
The 35-year-old eventually found his way to Juventus last season before making a return to Benfica – whom he last played for in 2010 – this summer after rejecting offers to join Ronaldo in the Middle East.
And based off the 4-1 thrashing the Portuguese outfit inflicted on Ronaldo and Co and the 5-0 thrashing they suffered against Celta Vigo, Ronaldo’s prediction may be some time away from being reality.
