Cristiano Ronaldo won the first title in Al Nasr. Ronaldo and Al Alami have lifted the cup by defeating arch-rivals Al Hilal by two goals to one in the final of the Arab Club Championship Cup held at the King Fahd Stadium. Al-Nasr overcame all odds and lifted the trophy despite two players getting sent off at half time.
Both the teams fought for the title and progressed. After a goalless draw in the first half, no one would have thought that the second half would be so exciting.
In the 51st minute of the match, Al Hilal took the lead through Michael, number 96 of Al Hilal, who sent the home ground into a frenzy. The Brazilian player’s super goal was scored through Malcolm’s assist.
Al Amri was sent off in the 71st minute of the match as if it was a double defense for Al Nasser who gave up the lead. Although reduced to ten men, Al Nasser was still fighting. That determination soon paid off. Al Nasser’s equalizer in the 74th minute.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored Al Hilal’s goal with Sultan Al Ghanam’s assist. Score 1-1.
But after the first goal fell in the fourth minute, Al Nasr suffered another setback. With the return of Al Nasser Nawaf Bouschel after a red card, Ronaldo and his team were reduced to nine men.
Al Hilal tried to capitalize on this collapse for Al Nasr but to no avail. The match went into extra time as the two teams were tied at 1-1 at the end of the regulation time.
Al Nasser took the lead through Ronaldo in the eighth minute of extra time. As Al Nasr struggled to keep a goal down in the remaining time, Al Nasr took a one-goal lead when the final whistle blew.
It was Al Nasr’s first win against Al Hilal since January 2021. Fans are doubly happy because it’s in another climactic match.
As in the previous matches, when Ronaldo again became the savior of Al Nasser, the first title in the Arab soil came to the five-time Ballon d’Or winner. And the Golden Boot.
When Al Nasser had to fail in some matches earlier, Ronaldo had to take all the blame. There were even those who said that the team was destroyed after the arrival of the star. Ronaldo’s title win was also a sweet answer for them.
After the victory, Al Nasser’s social media platforms are flooded with pictures. ‘We are back after 42 days. This return is not empty-handed’, she captioned a post.
Al Nasser doesn’t have much time to forget about the festivities. Because on August 14, in the new season of the Saudi Pro League, the match against Al Itifaq is now before Ronaldo and his team. This is the team’s first game of the season. The venue is Prince Mohammed Bin Fahd Stadium.
