Cristiano Ronaldo has another game under his belt and has once again asked for attention. But this time, unfortunately, not with his football skills. In fact, his tackle, which would definitely not be lost in wrestling, is more talked about.
Another problem for Al-Nassr. Even before the arrival of the Portuguese legend, he was the top team in the Saudi league, but Cristiano Ronaldo seems to have brought a piece of bad luck to the team. In fact, his team was knocked out of the local Super Cup back in February, further complicating the situation in the league.
Al-Nassr has been losing at times, while its main rival for the title, Al-Ittihad, has been completely dominant. Nevertheless, Ronaldo is scoring goals and although he is sometimes written about for his inferior performances or his tantrums, at 38 he is showing that he still has quality.
After all, the Portuguese legend has scored 11 goals and added 2 assists in 12 competitive games for the Saudi side. But on Tuesday night, she came up empty and once again showed herself in a rather worse light.
Ronaldo showed in the match against fourth-placed Al-Hilal that he might not be lost in wrestling. In the 57th minute, he almost took his opponent down with a wrestling move.
The Portuguese hung onto his opponent’s neck and pulled him to the ground. The referee’s verdict? Surprisingly a yellow card, but according to some fans it could have been a red card.
However, even with Ronaldo in the line-up, Al-Nassr failed to win the match and lost 2: 0. This was despite a 15-minute stoppage time in the second half. Ronaldo played the entire match and was the second highest rated player for his team according to SofaScore.
For Al-Ittihad, another loss to a rival is good news. He has a three-point lead and a game to play. Al-Nassr, on the other hand, may lose its lead over Al-Shabab, the third team in the competition,
