Cristiano Ronaldo and Al Nassr win another Saudi Pro League game but the Portuguese star breaks a promise he made to the league referees during the match. Ronaldo received a red card in the Saudi Super Cup semifinal against Al Hilal last month, which caused him to be banned for one match. Since then, CR7 has tried to calm down and told the referees that he wouldn’t shout or yell at them. That promise has now been broken during the match against Al Akhdoud as Sadio Mane goes down in the box. Ronaldo screams at the referee, and the official quickly takes out his yellow card for his complaining.
Ronaldo and Al Nassr did win after 90 minutes as they defeated Al Akhdoud 3-2 at the Prince Hathloul Bin Abdul Aziz Sport City Stadium. Ronaldo scored for Al Nassr once again as his knee connected to a quick cross in the box, and the Portuguese star was at the right place at the right time from close range. With Al Nassr, Ronaldo has played a total of 47 matches where he scored 48 goals and provided 12 assists, which puts him at a total of 60 goal contributions.
Since joining Al Nassr, CR7 has played a total of 66 matches, where he has 62 goals and 14 assists. The Portuguese striker has a total of 76 goal contributions at 39 years old. Ronaldo was very happy with the performance and posted on his social media pages about the win. CR7 posted pictures of him and his teammates celebrating the win with the caption that says, “Never give up! LET’S GO!!”
Ronaldo and Al Nassr will look forward to their next game in the Saudi Pro League as they will play their rivals Al Hilal. Al Hilal could become champions this weekend against Al Hazem if they win or draw the match. The game between Al Nassr and Al Hilal will take place next week at Al Awal Park. The two will face again on May 31st for the King’s Cup final.
