The Saudi Arabia Super Cup is a tournament in which a total of four teams, the first and second place teams from the Saudi Arabia Professional League and King Cup last season compete. Al-Nasr finished third in the Professional League last season, but thanks to Al-Hilal winning the Professional League and finishing runners-up in the King’s Cup, Al-Hilal earned a spot.
Al-Nassr was gaining momentum with the signing of Ronaldo. It was a very large contract worth 200 million euros (about 270 billion won) a year, including incentives other than a fixed salary.
However, the Ronaldo effect has yet to be seen.
Ronaldo made his debut on the 23rd against R.E.T. Park in the 14th round of the Professional League, but failed to score a goal. Fortunately, Al Nasr won 1-0.
Second match after transfer to Saudi Arabia (excluding Paris Saint-Germain friendly). Ronaldo was silent again. Al Nasr also conceded 3 goals in a 1-3 loss to Al Ittihad. Al Ittihad fans even mocked Ronaldo by shouting the name of Lionel Messi (Paris Saint-Germain).
Al-Nasr is leading the Professional League this season with 33 points from 10 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss. Before joining Ronaldo, there was only one defeat. Although it is the Super Cup, not the Professional League, it was the second defeat of the season in two games after joining Ronaldo.
