Riyadh is a battleground of clash between Ronaldo and the stars of the Saudi League

“A strong win, we’ll keep pushing forward.” With these few words and some muscle emojis in a social media post, Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, added more fuel to the blazing fire of the exciting race for the Saudi Football League title, between the leaders Al Hilal and Al Nassr, their relentless pursuers. Meanwhile, Al Ittihad are stumbling in their quest to defend their title, suffering another loss that leaves them 11 points behind the leaders. This comes just a month before the kickoff of the Club World Cup in Jeddah, in which the “Dean” will represent their country, as the league champions.

It’s worth mentioning that Al Hilal hasn’t been affected by the remarks of their Portuguese coach, Jorge Jesus, who suggested that their offensive power has decreased by 30% due to the absence of their Brazilian star, Neymar. Despite the absence of their magician, who underwent a “successful surgery” for a ruptured cruciate ligament, as reported by the Brazilian national team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar, the “leaders” continued to surpass their opponents, thanks to their arsenal of stars, led by his Serbian top scorer, Aleksandar Mitrovic (9 goals). Their captain, Salem Al-Dosari, with 7 goals, showed his brilliance with a wonderful goal in their recent match, just three days after being awarded the best player in Asia for 2022.

Despite all this brilliance, the Blue Team is aware that Al-Nasr, who won over Al-Khaleej in their last match with a wonderful goal and a key assist from Ronaldo, are fueled by their first star’s constant hunger to score more goals. Ronaldo, the league’s top scorer with 12 goals, shows no signs of slowing down, leading led Al-Nasr to their 15th victory in the last 16 matches, across all competitions, with just one draw.

The Spanish newspaper “Marca” summed up the entire situation when they praised the former Real Madrid top goal scorer, stating, “The combination of Al-Nasr’s victory and Ronaldo scoring has become normal news for a while now.” It is a clear indication that the Saudi team has changed a lot since the arrival of their international star where every victory is now linked to his name.

This is undeniably true. Al Hilal, for example, can win without Neymar, given the number of stars they have. However, the truth is that Al-Nasr’s performance at this level is credited to Ronaldo, who continues to charm everyone with his wonderful goals, even though he is at the verge of turning 39 years.

There’s no doubt that he won’t be stopping anytime soon, especially when it comes to his favorite hobby – scoring in every single match!
