Ivan Toney sensationally accuses the Saudi Pro league of CHEATING to hand Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr the title
Ivan Toney sensationally accuses the Saudi Pro league of CHEATING to hand Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr the title
The former Brentford man suggested the title race is being “influenced” in a spectacular rant over refereeing decisions. Toney, who scored his 27th goal of the season in a 1-1 draw on Wednesday, felt he and his Al-Ahli team-mates were denied three clear penalties.
“When we tried to talk to the referee, he told us to focus on the AFC [Champions League]. How can the referee say this? If you want me to go deeper, I can go deeper, it might get me into trouble but I am a man that says it how it is.
“Throughout the season, it was a clear penalty but now we get to crunch time and they change it. We know who [will benefit]. Who are we chasing?
“It’s actually crazy how you can miss things like this in crucial moments or choose to turn a blind eye. It’s clear what is being influenced here. I am probably the bad guy for speaking some truths.”
