cristiano-ronaldo-put-on-a-display-of-speed-in-al-nassr's-win-over-al-raed


Cristiano Ronaldo has shown at the age of 38 that he is and will be in force in professional football. And it is that during the match last Friday between Al-Nassr and Al-Raed, El Bicho made a demonstration of speed in the dispute for a ball that revealed his great form.

It was at the start of the second half when Cristiano ran from midfield to the area near the corner kick. Despite not having kept the ball, he gave a run not very different from the ones he gave in his best days with Real Madrid.

CR7 left the game with a goal scored in the 4th minute, which marked the start of the 4-0 win over Al Raed at Marsool Park.

In this way, Cristiano Ronaldo reached 12 goals in the Saudi Professional League, which allows him to situate himself in third place in the scoring table led by the Moroccan Abderrazak Hamdallah, a player from Al-Ittihad, who has 16 goals.

Al-Nassr currently ranks second in the Saudi Professional League with 56 points, being surpassed by Al-Ittihad who has 59 and one game less.

Al-Nassr’s next match will be on Monday, May 8 against Al Khaleej for matchday 25 of the tournament.
