(PLO)- Although Cristiano Ronaldo scored the first goal for Al Nassr, the fans were still angry and demanded the dismissal of one person at the club.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Al Nassr just had a draw in a “dead end” chase once morest Al Fateh in the Saudi Pro League. The home team Al Fateh took the lead twice, but the striker duo of Al Nassr Anderson Talisca and Cristiano Ronaldo respectively equalized 2-2, in which, CR7 scored in the last minute on the penalty spot to regain it. 1 point for Al Nassr.

(PLO)- Finally, the star Cristiano Ronaldo of Al Nassr also had a goal following exactly 270 minutes.
Thus, in the third match for Al Nassr, Ronaldo “shot” for the first time. In those 3 matches, Al Nassr won 1, drew 1 and lost 1. This put pressure on coach Rudi Garcia when the team might not win in 2 consecutive matches. Al Nassr without Ronaldo seems to play more stable, but in 3 games with CR7 as captain, the club struggled once morest opponents.

French coach Rudi Garcia was appointed “captain” of Saudi football giants Al Nassr in June last year and is still in his first season in charge. Before Ronaldo arrived, Al Nassr under Garcia was firmly at the top of the Saudi Pro League table. But fans hope that Ronaldo’s appearance will help the team speed up, not struggle as it is now.
However, under Garcia, Ronaldo failed to score in his first two appearances, in which Al Nassr lost 1-3 to Al Ittihad in the second match and was eliminated in the semi-finals of the Saudi Super Cup. Coach Rudi Garcia was not afraid to criticize Ronaldo’s missed opportunities that made Al Nassr unable to get up.
After that loss, Rudi Garcia made it clear: “One of the things that changed the game was Cristiano Ronaldo’s missed opportunity in the first half. It is very important that the players play normally and not always try to give the ball to Cristiano.
I told them they had to make the right decisions on the pitch. Obviously, when Cristiano or Anderson Talisca is alone and asks for a pass, we have to give it to them. These two players have the ability to make the difference.
I think sometimes we have good crosses, but not enough people in the box, sometimes without Ronaldo or Talisca. We have to work once more, have to have one of them in the penalty area and maybe the other will play outside of that area.”

But despite Garcia’s frank assessment, Al Nassr still struggled once morest Al Fateh. Ronaldo looks to have endured another frustrating day, following he scored an offside penalty, shot over the bar in front of the open goal with a shot that hit the crossbar.
But when the game entered injury time, Ronaldo had a golden opportunity to “open an account” when Al Nassr was awarded a penalty. Anderson Talisca, who scored a 1-1 equalizer and then received a red card (when the two teams drew 2-2), had possession of the ball and appeared ready to take the penalty. However, Ronaldo took the ball from Talisca’s hand and personally took responsibility for the 11m shot.
And the 37-year-old Portuguese superstar made a “cold” finish to equalize 2-2. After the match, Ronaldo shared his joy on Instagram: “So happy to score my first goal in the Saudi Arabia league and the whole team worked so hard to win an important draw in a very good match. hard!”.

Coach Rudi Garcia also said he was happy when Ronaldo scored the first goal, but fans on social media criticized this Al Nassr head coach.
One supporter said: “You did nothing, Tali (Talisca) saved you in every game, and now he is out (red card). Let’s see how he will save himself if not. have him in the next game! Do your job.”
Another posted: “Coach, the level of the team continues to go downhill, obviously the players are under a lot of pressure. We all see that when the players pass the ball to each other. Mr. Something needs to be done regarding this.”

Another shared the same opinion with the tweet: “The team suffered a lot with you! No solution! No identity! No personality! Each match begins with a change from the previous one. Rudi, you are not the solution, the team sucks!!!”
A fourth person commented briefly: “Break up, we don’t want you.” Before another confirmed: “Like the Saudi Super Cup, Rudi Garcia threw the game.”
