Cristiano Ronaldo was part of the chaos unfolding in the aftermath of Al-Nassr's 2-0 win over Al-Ahli . The two teams met in the Saudi Pro League on Wednesday evening at the Alawwal Park. Al-Nassr ultimately secured victory thanks to goals from Ronaldo and Kingsley Coman , extending their lead over Al-Hilal at the top of the league standings to eight points as they surge into their final four with momentum. It also came as the club's 16th win in the league in a row and their 20th consecutive across all competitions. But while there should have been jubilation in front of a jam-packed home crowd after their win over Al-Ahli, the mood quickly turned sour. Merih Demiral was spotted arguing with Ronaldo immediately after the full-time whistle, as he was held back by players and staff. He then quickly made a bee-line for Coman, as the Frenchman was spotted gesturing at him before skipping away. Nawaf Boushal was also spotted gesturing furiously and exchanging words with Ivan Toney, before the Englishman retreated away from the fracas. Demiral was then spotted picking up one of his two Asian Champions League medals, before putting it round his neck and showing it off to Al-Nassr fans, biting it while furious first-pumping in further antagonization. Mohamed Simakan, meanwhile, ran a victory lap of the stadium with a large Al-Nassr flag in hand, distancing himself from the skirmish after waving it in front of Demiral. He later handed the flag to Ronaldo, who was spotted laughing and joking with his team-mate before attempting to plant it in the turf. After tensions had cooled and Al-Ahli players and staff had left the pitch, Al-Nassr players enjoyed a celebration with fans. Ronaldo was also spotted taking a jab at Demiral in his post-match interview, laughing as he said: "Five Champions, I have. I have five, five." JOIN US ON FACEBOOK! Latest news, analysis and much more on Mirror Football's Facebook page When asked about the wealth of "stress" in the game and aftermath, he also explained that he plans on speaking with league officials this summer, appalled by consistent "bad things" and complaints. He added: "I think this is not good for the league. "Everyone complains, everyone does it more than they should do. This is football, this is not a war. "We know we have to fight, everyone wants to win, but it's not allowed, everything. It's not allowed, everything. "I'm going to have time to speak at the end of the season because I see many, many, many bad things. Many players complain, doing posts on Instagram and Facebook . "Speak about the referees, speak about the league, speak about the project. I think this is not good. This is not the goal of the league. "We should give examples, not only here, but also for Europe. We want to compete with them to be one of the best leagues in the world . But like that, I think we should analyse. Stop that, speak with the SPL because, for me, this is not football." However, the beef didn't finish on the pitch, as Demiral was spotted leaving telling the media that he felt cheated as his team left the stadium. He said: "All the referees, wallahi, crazy, my friends. "The reputation of the league, how are you supposed to...check here [pointing towards his leg following a tackle during the match]. Check my foot, he broke, almost, my foot, huh? "Everything they have to Nassr, they want to achieve something. Wallahi, shame. They always push, they want to win, Nassr, Nassr. Wallahi, this is shame. "But alhamdullilah, Al Ahli, always. Al-Ahli always winning the game, nobody help - from no one. But always we'll be top."
