It seems Cristiano Ronaldo had a challenging game against Al-Riyadh, with Al-Nassr needing a late equalizer to salvage a draw. Despite being clear favorites, Ronaldo and his team struggled to break down their opponents, with Ronaldo himself missing multiple opportunities to score.
The first half saw Al-Nassr take the lead through Otavio’s deflected shot, but Al-Riyadh fought back with a spectacular goal from Andre Gray. Mohammed Al-Aqel then scored a stunning bicycle kick to put Al-Riyadh ahead, leaving Ronaldo’s team trailing.
In the second half, Al-Nassr pressed for an equalizer, but Ronaldo continued to struggle in front of goal. The tension escalated when Aymeric Laporte was sent off for an off-the-ball slap, further hampering Al-Nassr’s chances.
Despite their frustrations, Al-Nassr managed to score a late equalizer through Meshari Al-Nemer, salvaging a point from the game.
Ronaldo’s poor form and Laporte’s red card were significant setbacks for Al-Nassr, who will now focus on their final league game against Al-Ittihad before preparing for the King’s Cup final against Al-Hilal.
