Another Defeat For The Soccer Legend
Soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo faced a 3-0 defeat against Al-Hilal in the Riyadh Derby, but the soccer legend was still the center of attention in Saudi Arabian soccer.
During the game, the soccer legend was being taunted by opposition fans chanting “Messi,”. But the soccer legend still gained the admiration of both away fans and even some home supporters.
Many fans wore the soccer legend’s jersey number, and parents in even the hostile sections pointed out the 38-year-old soccer legend to their children.
According to a published article by AP News, the match the soccer legend participated in was the last to be played at the King Fahd International Stadium. This is due to its renovation for upcoming international competitions.
Previous 14 Games
In a published article by ESPN, the 38-year-old forward for Al Nassr received cheers from away fans and jeers from home supporters during a recent match.
In the previous 14 games, Ronaldo scored 15 goals, helping Al Nassr move into second place in the league. Al Nassr coach Luis Castro praised Ronaldo as an example of rigor, ambition, and discipline.
Despite his efforts, Ronaldo’s goal was ruled out for offside and he claimed to have been elbowed in the penalty area. He also insisted that he had been fouled in the buildup to the opponent’s goal.
