It's really funny how hope is placed on just one person..... He is not the whole team, besides him there are other players who will determine whether Cristiano will score or not. He can help his team, but if the team performs badly, nothing will help them, not even Ronaldo.
You're right, it makes absolutely no sense for a title to be easy to win just because a team is depending on one player. Ronaldo is not responsible for success, but he is responsible for his own performance which in turn can help the team get the most out of a game. Al-Nassr was able to win the title not only because of Ronaldo, but it is because the team played well all season.

After all Ronaldo is part of the team and he still needs the help of other players to play well. In the 2022-2023 season Ronaldo played 16 times by scoring 14 goals and 2 assists, those are good statistics for him. Last season Al-Nassr failed to win the title, but next season they will try their best.
You're right all hope shouldn't be placed on C Ronaldo because they just bought some top European players to Strengthen the club and help boast the team spirit all though the whole team is build around Ronaldo but they're still other players there that would help assist him and i think that why they're getting good results lately.
 Talking about good results Ronaldo is having a good time and currently getting the ball in the net back to back and his current form and performance has helped his team to reach the finals of the Arab Club Champions Club to play against their strong rival Al-Hilal, i think it's going to be one very tough match but Al-Nassr stand a good chance of winning the cup considering Ronaldo's current form and the quality of players they introduced into their squad lately.

As people predict previously that final match for Arab Club Champions Cup between Al Hilal vs Al Nassr both teams has been advances to the final match after beat their opponents and this is good time for Ronaldo to gets revenge because since arrived and playing to Saudi Pro League Al Hilal is one of the team who cannot able to beated by Ronaldo and last season Al Nassr has been lost several times from Al Hilal and besides that Ronaldo is quite near to his first trophy with Al Nassr so he won't be missed this chances but of we see from meetings statistics Al Nassr should be careful to Al Hilal because Al Hilal is became an the team who hard to beated especially on Al Hilal squad there were some of good players such as Koulibaly, Milinković-Savić and their forward player Malcom so this match will be so tight and not impossible will ended with penalty kick
True, the habit of finals will end in a penalty because the two clubs tend to play with caution. In five meetings Al Hilal won 3 times, drew one and lost one time. This means that on paper Al Hilal is slightly superior to Al Nassr. But seeing as Al Nassr's current existence is certainly a bit balanced with the presence of Saido Mane with Ronaldo, of course.

I think Al Nassr will come out as champions with a narrow goal difference, if it doesn't come to the penalty shoot-out round. Score 1-0 for the victory of AL Nassr.
It seems that what you said is true because Al Nassr is currently in a very strong condition after arrival of reliable player from european clubs such as sadio Mane and Ronaldo.
This was all evident from the previous matches Al Nassr looked very good, always won in every match and it was all because of the contribution of Ronaldo who always scored in every game and I agree that Al-Hilal upcoming match will have a little difficulty facing Al Nassr and the score will be narrowly lost.
But also the potential for a draw is also bigger because this is the final match, for sure Al-Hilal will not give up easily and keep trying to appear strong with a defense that will be strengthened to block Ronaldo and Mane so that it will be difficult for him to score.

Over and over again Cristiano Ronaldo has proven that he's immuned to pressure and also knows how to rise up to the big occasions when his services is needed most. Cristiano Ronaldo's match-defining moments since the start of his career is one the reasons he's regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time.
The final match against Al-Hilal will be a tough game because the quality of players in Al-Hilal are strong.

Absolutely impressive! Cristiano Ronaldo, a true headmaster, guides his team to the Arab Club Champions Cup final, for the first time in club's history, by scoring the only goal. Al Nassr is all set to face against Al Hilal in the Saturday final. Al Nassr really needs well preparation; it won't be a simple task. Al Hilal holds a stronger position, but my hope is that CR7 will do his things.

With Saudi clubs being splurging money around like crazy, I am sure that João Félix would be offered at least 3x to 4x of what he would receive in any of the European clubs. But then, Félix is just 23 years old and he has just started his career. At this point, moving away from Europe maybe a risky move for him. In the end, there is a chance that he may decide to stay with Barcelona for a couple of years more, so that he can focus fully on his career. Anyway, it is also important to know what his current club (Atletico Madrid) is planning for him.
The last news that I heard João Félix had a problem with the coach so he was not wanted in the team that's why he was loaned to Chelsea last season and this season was included in the release plan, I believe this season he will move to a new team either to loan or be released it's just that we don't know which team is the next destination. Al Hilal could have taken it but did not take it to the Saudi League but bring it to other teams such as Barcelona or Newcastle, Newcastle itself is affiliated with Al Hilal.
The one I heard wasn't with the coach but with the management for keeping him. He has publicly spoken about wanting to get out, and he already said that he wants to leave to go to Barcelona already, and the team still didn't sell him anyway.

This means that they do want more money which is understandable, but also you do not want to keep a player that doesn't want to stay there, you should get rid of him as soon as possible if you want rest of the team to be happy about it. In the end we are going to end up with a transfer one way or another, would he be willing to go to Saudi league is something I do not know, but since he wants to leave, he may accept it if he is offered a lot of money to go as well, depends on the amount.

Al-Ahli after signing Roberto Firmino from Liverpool, want this time to recruit Thiago leaving Liverpool defence fragile. Klopp will not have many options in the defence line and potential injuries will leave the club defence weak.
The offer is €12m this summer or free agent next summer? Saudi teams are milking EPL teams pretty good Wink

If Al Hilal had brought Joao Felix to the team, he would probably have become the biggest favorite of the Saudi Arabian league. Of course, they are one of the biggest favourites right now. Together with Al Nassr, they will be one of the teams that will compete on the way to the championship. Big money is being spent and they will want to get paid for it.
What about Neymar who already has a proposal from Al Hilal? This is even more impressive for an Arab club.
Of course, this is still unclear because it is not only Al Hilal who offers proposals even MLS is the same, speaking of European teams Barcelona also wants it but Xavi as head coach refused it because it was Joan Laporta's wish not the coach.

Joan Laporta just wants to get commercial from the upcoming sponsors.

Well still not clear! But as the transfer window draws to a close I think Arab teams will move faster even with their offers.

It is not a game for Cristiano Ronaldo only. If Al Nassr will win that competition, all the players in the team have to be very involved in trying to ensure that it happens. It is good that Rinaldo has good support now in the team in the person of Sadio Mane, if Ronaldo works with him, they can dominate the game. It will be a good record for Ronaldo too if he wins the Arab club champions cup to add to his portfolio, that will a cup that Lionel Messi has not won and will not win that he has.

Yes indeed, Al-Nassr has finally reached the final of the Arab Club Champions Cup for the first time. Also, about Al-Hilal this is not the first time Al-Hilal has reached the final, so maybe Al-Hilal will also try to win the trophy in this match to pay for its past failures as well. But indeed, with Al-Nassr having Ronaldo in its squad at this moment, it will be a great chance for Al-Nassr to win the trophy in this Arab Club Champions Cup. Of course, if Al-Nassr can win it then it will be a great achievement, because it is the first time to reach the final match, but Al-Nassr also has a great chance to simultaneously win the Arab Club Champions Cup title for the first time too.

Franck Kessie has officially arrived in Jeddah and he is the next player who will strengthen the Al-Ahli squad in the Saudi league competition next season. His decision to join Al-Ahli was the right one because at Barcelona he was no longer part of Xavi's plans. His contract with Al-Ahli runs until 2026 and he will be in a team with Roberto Firmino, Eduard Mendy, Riyad Mahrez and Saint Maximin. There is no doubt Al-Ahli will be ready to challenge other strong sides in the saudi league with the depth of his growing squad of European players.
Barcelona and Al Ahli have reached agreement deals of Franck Kessie transfer fees 12,5 million euro with salary payment 20 million euro every season and "here we go" to Saudi Professional League for Franck Kessie. Right decision from Franck Kessie leaves Barcelona after spent last season not longer part of Xavi Hernandez games plan and joining with Al Ahli he can get many great Europeans players partner like Firmino, Eduard Mendy, Mahrez and Saint Maximin. Potential chance for Franck Kessie debut on first Saudi Pro League match for Al Ahli against Al Hazm and we are most proud watching Saudi Arabia league dominance with many stars player.

It is rather strange that Al Nasr won with such a modest score, plus the goal itself was scored from a penalty kick (Ronaldo scored the 4th game in a row). In any case, the final will be as expected - two Saudi teams will determine who will get the title. As far as I can see at the moment, the bookmakers have not yet decided on quotes, but it seems to me that the most obvious choice would be BTTS. Even if the coefficient is low (at least not less than 1.4), it makes sense to make such a bet.
It's not so strange. Shorta was the best one in iraqi premier league. Winning against shorta through penalty was not an unacceptable thing as well. it's hard to imagine if there will a club who will not be scored in the final between nassr vs hilal but i remind you that al hilal beat nassr in last match with 2-0 as final score.

The match between hilal vs nassr is quite hard to predict. I would prefer to bet on al hilal rather than nassr. Nassr has so many great players in the club but hilal's performance in the arab club champion league is very impressive.

Nassr was always unable to beat hilal in SPL last season. It's time for ronaldo to revenge bad result in SPL.

At the moment, the level of the Iraqi League is not comparable to the league of Saudi Arabia, so I was expecting a victory with a higher score. As for the final, I know that Al Nassr will not be the favorite, however I would like to see concrete numbers from the bookmakers. Has anyone seen them? I checked several bookmakers (I even had to look at the fiat local scam in my country) but I don't see quotes anywhere.

Yes indeed mediocre team if we refer to the data and statistics of this match, and if compared with Al Nassr also Al Shorta is very far behind, considering that in Al Nassr there are many top players and they have a better experience rather than Shorta players.
Al Hilal match seemed interesting but unfortunately I didn't watch them Sir, Malcom as a center forward is quite capable of scoring goals again, it seems like Jerge Jesus will continue to entrust this player in that position.
By the way guess Sir, which team will get the trophy, Al Hilal or Al Nassr ? I personally seem to be choose Al Nassr because Ronaldo is on fire.

I have said before, that Al Hilal will win the final match later. anyway this is only part of my personal choice, not referring to predictions and analysis. if we have to compare in terms of the strength of these two teams, after all Al Nassr is far superior to the depth of the players. apart from Ronaldo, Al Nassr has other players who are no less good in quality if we compare them to the squads of other teams. the presence of Brozovic, Fotana and finally Sadio Mane, made this team even more deep. not to mention other players like Talisca, including the local players who are part of the team. theoretically, Al Nassr should be superior to Al Hilal. however, I haven't seen the odds for these two teams.

On the Al Hilal side, this team is a regular champion in the Saudi Pro League. after three consecutive seasons, in the end Al Ittihad broke their dominance to win the League trophy. even though he didn't bring in top European players like Al Nassr, the fact is that Al Hilal cannot be underestimated. this team, has a winning mentality in the Saudi pro league caste. every team that becomes his opponent, requires a strong mentality to overthrow him. I prefer Al Hilal from this point of view, because Al Nassr has always struggled to overthrow his biggest rival. although now Al Nassr can be said to be star-studded, psychologically, Al Hilal has charisma and a winning mentality. What's more, Al Hilal also has players he can rely on, like Malcom, one of them. Also, some of Europe's top players newcomers. this fight, should be a fierce and tense match. at least, I hope so. but regarding the team that will win, I favor Al Hilal.

To be honest, I don't have the track record of Al Shorta's team, against which Al Nassr played in the quarter-finals. in fact, we don't know how strong Al Shorta's team is. but apparently, Al Shorta is a mediocre team "just my guess" if I refer to the data and statistics of this match. even though in this match Al Nassr had difficulty scoring goals, in fact they controlled the game with 64% ball possession. tactically, Al Nassr is much better than the opposing team. as well as with every opportunity they have. unfortunately, only one goal was created. but that was enough for them, to ensure advance to the final round.

In another match, Al Hilal against Al Shabab. the last time Al Hilal was defeated by Al Shabab in the Saudi Pro League competition, naturally at that time Al Hilal had a series of busy schedules. but in this fight, Al Hilal did not allow Al Shabab to overthrow them again. in fact, the goalkeeper from Al Hilal was given a very red card in the 25th minute. even so, Al Hilal was able to slay the opposing team with a final score of 3-1. I had previously suspected that these two teams who competed in the Arab Cup Champions Cup semi-finals would qualify for the final phase. at Al Nassr, it seems that Mane has found a very good rhythm of play, although it is too early to judge. for Al Hilal, again Jerge Jesus entrusted Malcom as a center forward and he successfully contributed one goal in that match.

Well, as I predicted before. if Al Nassr will meet Al Hilal in the final match. for sure, this match will offer an interesting and competitive match. plus, these two teams are strong rivals in a decade in the Saudi League Pro League. the question is, can Al Nassr break the dominance of Al hilal. So, let's wait for this final match.

If Al Hilal had brought Joao Felix to the team, he would probably have become the biggest favorite of the Saudi Arabian league. Of course, they are one of the biggest favourites right now. Together with Al Nassr, they will be one of the teams that will compete on the way to the championship. Big money is being spent and they will want to get paid for it.

Only if felix gonna agree with hilal's offer. Felix has no interest to play in saudi league since he is still very young. He can continue his career in the european league as long as he urges his club to decrease his release clause.
His price is the reason why there's no club approach him yet other than al hilal. European clubs are not so satisfied with his performance. Some even thought that if felix's price was very expensive and his price should be around 60m.

Atletico puts very high price for him for no reason. Felix is young, but it doesn't mean his price guarantees his performance in the new club. Al hilal can use such money to sign an experienced player rather than try to bet on him.
Al hilal shall find an alternative for him. The club can't keep pursue him while felix has no interest in coming to the saudi pro league.

A goal from Cristiano Ronaldo confirmed Al Nassr in the final. In the final match I think Al Nassr has a chance to win because they have two legendary players Ronaldo and Sadia Mane in this team. If they perform well, they can definitely take the Al Nassr trophy, Cristiano Ronaldo's team is most likely to win the final match. However, we cannot say for sure which team will win but Al Hilal should not be taken lightly as they also won the match brilliantly to enter the final. Whereas a strong team like ittihad who were champions this season beat Al Hilal 3-1, and Al Shabab 3-1 to reach the final match. In that case, if we look at Al Hilal players, we will see that they are all good players because Al Hilal currently has good European players. In that case we can say that Al Nassr and Al Hilal will definitely be a great game with enough fighting between the two teams. And in this fight only those who attack enough and can score goals will win the trophy. Although I am backing Al Nassr to win, it is difficult to predict which team will win the game.

Once again Ronaldo became determined for the club to win after having enough trouble scoring a goal and in the 75th minute, Ronaldo executed the penalty well. Al Nassr controlled the match but Al Shorta managed to hold off Al Nassr's attacks well even from this match we can judge that Al Nassr has not shown an impressive performance because he faced a team that had no players from Europe, in contrast to Al Nassr's opponent in the final, where Al Hilal could win with a very convincing score even when they were in the 25' minute Al Hilal played only with only 10 players after their goalkeeper received a red card.
In the final between Al Nassr vs Al Hilal is what many people predicted, and the two clubs are strong rivals in the Saudi Pro League, and this will be an even final and Ronaldo has a great chance to give his club the first title since his arrival last year, but Al Hilal will be difficult to beat because the material of their players is the same as strengthening their squad with several foreign players from Europe.
When CR7 takes a penalty kick, almost 100% of his shots are always goals. That is the privilege of the legend CR7. And even this time CR7 managed to take advantage of the penalty kick well and brought Al-Nassr to the Finals.

But in the Final match I think it will be a difficult match for Al-Nassr. Because Al-Hilal who became the opponent in the Final is a very tough club. Even in the match against Al-Ittihad we can see that Al-Hilal can control the game very well. And succeeded in pressing Al-ittihad's back line very hard. Al-Hilal has a lot of European players at the moment. Such as Ruben Neves, Sergej Milikonvic-Savic, Kalidou Koulibaly, Malcom and Bafetimbi Gomis. So it might be very difficult to predict who will be the winner in the Arab Club Champions Cup Final. I support Al-Nassr of course.  Grin

Yes they're fine player's introduced the the squad but believe that they're are no threat, whenever you see your opponent as a threat then they become one to you. I hate to take sides but whoever controls the game and takes those chances will end up as the winners of the finals. Ronaldo and the rest of the players should keep their heads locked in. This is a final they should do all they can to win.
The penalty was beautiful taken with a great technique as Cristiano Ronaldo did send the goalie the wrong way.

 Sadio is another great addition, he's been doing it whole hearthedly since he joined the squad. I'm rooting for them to win nothing more ( Now I can't help but side with Ronaldo)
