Cristiano Ronaldo led Al-Nassr to the Saudi Arabian Cup final [WIDEO] It’s time for an extremely difficult challenge

Al-Nassr confidently defeated Al-Khaleej Club (3:1) and advanced to the King’s Cup final. Cristiano Ronaldo, who usually does not disappoint his fans, played a great role and scored a double.

Building the advantage for the “Knights of Najd” began in the 17th minute. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner took advantage of the goalkeeper’s mistake and scored into an almost empty goal in spectacular style.

The second goal was thanks to Sadio Mané, who received a gift from Ronaldo in the form of a penalty kick. After the Senegalese’s shot, the rival goalkeeper didn’t even move.

In the second half, the proverbial dot on the i’s, although not decisive regarding the final result, was made by the legend of Real Madrid. Thus, the 39-year-old has already scored 38 goals in 39 official appearances in the current campaign. He also added 12 assists.

The honorable goal in the 82nd minute was scored by Fawaz Al-Terais.

Thanks to the victory in front of the home crowd, the Sporting graduate will have a chance to win the second trophy in the current team. Less than a year ago, the Arab Club Champions Cup was added to his rich list of achievements.

The day before, in the clash between the Saudi giants, Al-Hilal triumphed over Al-Ittihad and it is with Jorge Jesus’ players that Al-Nassr will fight for the national trophy.

“CR7” did not retain good memories of the last direct skirmish. Less than a month ago, in the semi-final of the Saudi Arabian Super Cup, he turned out to be a pale spot compared to “Al-Za’eem”, receiving a red card for his performance.

The final will be held on May 31 at King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah.
