Since Ronaldo started playing in the Saudi League, I haven't talked much about him. Today, let's focus on the Saudi League and see how Ronaldo is doing there.
To conclude, Ronaldo is doing quite well in Saudi Arabia, but including this year, he has gone two consecutive seasons without winning a title. In the Saudi King's Cup final, which started at 1 a.m. on June 1st, Al-Nassr, Ronaldo's team, lost 4-5 in a penalty shootout to Al-Hilal, missing out on the championship once again. Ronaldo also continued his curse of not scoring against Al-Hilal, making it three consecutive seasons without a title.
Does this mean Ronaldo's performance has been poor? Not at all. According to statistics, Ronaldo has played 51 matches for Al-Nassr in all competitions, scoring a total of 50 goals and providing 14 assists, directly contributing to 64 goals. In the Saudi League alone, he has made 31 appearances, scoring 35 goals and providing 12 assists. The last time he achieved such a feat was in the 2015/16 season with Real Madrid, where he played 48 matches, scoring 51 goals and providing 15 assists. He certainly deserves the €200 million annual salary Al-Nassr is paying him.
However, despite Ronaldo's impressive performance, it hasn't translated into championships for the team. After the King's Cup final loss, Ronaldo still showed his dissatisfaction. Considering that many European players go to Saudi Arabia just to earn money and don't play as hard as they did in Europe, we can see that Ronaldo's desire to win and his professional attitude are top-notch. It is precisely this quality that makes Ronaldo a legendary figure, unmatched by most other stars. |
