Al-Nassr

Cristiano Ronaldo and Talisca each added a pair to their prolific goal tally on the Saudi Pro League season as Al Nassr thrashed relegation-threatened Al ...

24th min: Cristiano Ronaldo tries to play a one-two with a teammate at the top of the penalty area, but the Al Adalah defenders saw it coming. 90 mins to kick: Al Nassr of course want to win the domestic title to bring home the silverware, but even more important is continental qualification. A replay shows the Al Adalah back line stepped up extremely well to put him over the edge despite his attempt to adjust at the last second. He's sprung through on a ball over the top of the high Al Adalah back line, and free on goal, he shoots right at the goalkeeper! The referee takes a look, and he's made his decision...it's a PENALTY TO AL NASSR! Ronaldo goes to ground and throws his hands up in the air looking to win a foul, or maybe a penalty (it was right on the edge of the 18-yard box) but the referee waves away his protests. AL NASSR!] Cristiano Ronaldo steps up to take the penalty, and smashes it into the back of the net! Replays show that Al Amri is clearly fouled, and the referee is referred TO A VAR REVIEW! He's fed through with a vertical ball down the left side of the six-yard box, but the angle is just too tight by the time he gets to it, and his shot is stopped by a charging Milan Mijatovic who stops the ball dead between his feet. Al Adalah did well to survive, mostly, but Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty has the visitors leading. The clean sheet caps off a wonderful performance, although Al Adalah had a number of chances to score and simply blew them. Eugenio has to score here, in a fabulous position with space just outside the six-yard box, but he simply takes too long to get the ball off his feet, and his shot is blocked after the defense recovers.

The way Ronaldo rolls his finger in the air, follows it up with a semi-circular jump, and roars 'SIIUUUUUU' has become a trademark in itself. A French commentator for RMC Sport, who are live streaming the game on their Twitch channel, mimicked Ronaldo's iconic 'SIIUUUUUU' on air as the Portuguese international celebrated with his teammate in typical CR7 fashion. The crowd always joins in on the celebration, but now it has begun to go beyond the pitch and the stands.

They appeared to be a match made in heaven. His four years in charge of the Green Falcons already made him one of the country’s longest-serving managers and has coincided with a real upturn in the fortunes of Saudi Arabian football. With so much positive momentum in the Kingdom, this next appointment is one that Saudi Arabia simply cannot afford to get wrong lest it risk undoing all of the gains it has made in recent years. His track record in the game demanded respect. While Saudi Arabia qualified for Russia 2018, their opening day humiliation did little to further their international reputation. Maybe it was the crisp and perfectly fitted white shirts that became a trademark of his tenure, but the 54-year-old had an aura about him, especially in the latter stages of his tenure after he had molded the Green Falcons into one of the continent’s most competitive teams.
