Cristiano Ronaldo was left rather 'embarrassed' after failing to pull off a backheel attempt during his training session with Al-Nassr shortly after being unveiled.
The 37-year-old Portugal forward was officially unveiled as an Al Nassr player on Tuesday following his arrival in Saudi Arabia after he agreed a £175million-a-year contract.
Ronaldo was introduced as 'the world's greatest footballer' in front of 25,000 raucous supporters at Mrsool Park in Riyadh, to a backdrop of fireworks, flares and strobe lighting.
