“After bidding goodbye to Portugal in the 2022 World Cup, many believed that Cristiano Ronaldo had reached the end of his career. However, Ronaldo had different thoughts in mind.
Following the World Cup, Ronaldo joined Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr. In the ongoing season, Ronaldo has become an unstoppable force with Al Nassr. Last night, in the Saudi Super League match against Al Ahli, Ronaldo scored two sensational goals in Al Nassr’s 3-0 victory, both of which were eye-catching. In the current season, Ronaldo has scored 18 goals in 18 matches for Al Nassr, including 15 goals in 13 matches in the Saudi Pro League. In the last three league matches, Ronaldo scored 4 goals.
Last night, Ronaldo scored his first goal against Al Ahli in the 77th minute. When Ronaldo received the ball inside the box on the right, he faced four opponents, including the goalkeeper and defenders. Initially, ‘CR7’ controlled the ball superbly himself. He then slightly moved the ball inside twice. Even the two defenders in front moved backward. However, keeping an eye on the nearby goalpost, Ronaldo took a lightning-fast shot. The two defenders and even the goalkeeper stationed in front of the post couldn’t stop the ball from hitting the net. Ronaldo celebrated ecstatically after this fantastic goal. However, Ronaldo’s best goal came just three minutes later.
After creating an attack against Al Nassr, the Al Ahli defenders were pushing forward. Initially trailing behind, Ronaldo slowly moved ahead, eyeing the ball. At this moment, the Al Ahli goalkeeper attempted to intercept. He initially tried to clear the ball with his chest, but Ronaldo outsmarted him. He gently nudged the ball past him and then lobbed it, even though several defenders were present in the box. The Al Ahli defenders were left stranded as the ball found its way into the net. Ronaldo’s celebration was a sight to behold. After the match, he posted multiple pictures, conveying his best wishes to everyone for the weekend.
Before Ronaldo’s brace, Sami Al-Najei scored the first goal of the day for Al Nassr. This win takes Ronaldo’s team to their 18th victory in the last 19 matches. At the moment, Al Nassr has accumulated 34 points from 14 matches, with 11 wins, 2 losses, and 1 draw. Al Hilal leads the league with 35 points from 13 matches. The next match for Al Nassr after December 2 will be against Al Hilal.”
Ronaldo’s phenomenal performance in the Saudi Arabian league with Al Nassr has shown that he’s far from slowing down, delivering exceptional performances and becoming a crucial figure for his team.
