Ronaldo, it's over...

Cristiano Ronaldo will probably not be Saudi Arabian champion again this year.

What a disappointment. Coming to Saudi Arabia to, by his own admission, further enhance his record, Cristiano Ronaldo will end his second season empty-handed. This Wednesday in the Saudi Pro League, Al-Nassr certainly lost one match too many in the title race.

On their lawn, CR7 and his teammates suffered the law, to everyone’s surprise, from Al-Raed, a team from the second part of the table (1-3). If Yahya has restarted his training (24e), El Berkaoui (18e), Fouzair (46e) and Sayoud (87e) hurt the Riyadh club.

Al-Hilal promised to title

Al-Nassr thus remains nine lengths behind the relentless leader that is Al-Hilal – a headliner who will have the opportunity to further widen the gap on Friday evening in the event of success on the Al-Riyadh field , current 15e of the Saudi elite.

Since his arrival in Saudi Arabia, Cristiano Ronaldo has won a trophy: the Arab Cup for Champion Clubs in 2023. His performance is impressive: in 51 matches, the Portuguese goalkeeper has scored 45 goals and provided 13 assists.
