I'm not sure that at his current age Ronaldo can ensure success in the Champions League or even the final, but yes in the right team he can still give a better result than many young players. But I don't think we will see him in Europe (with the exception of the national team games), he has already proved everything to everyone. And I am glad that he left Europe a winner, unlike the same Messi who, being at a younger age, spent two sad seasons at PSG and will now leave under whistle of the fans.

Al-Shabab had won first with a score of 1-2 in the first half, making Al-Nassr a little frustrated to turn things around in the second half. But it didn't take long for the second half to kick off as Ghareeb scored the equalizer to make it 2-2. The match was even more exciting because both teams wanted to get an additional 3 points in this match and it seems that Al-Nassr has to thank Cristiano Ronaldo who scored the third goal as well as made a winning comeback with a score of 3-2. Al-Nassr is getting closer to Al-Ittihad, who is only 3 points away in the standings and with two games remaining, Al-Nassr's hopes of winning the SPL this season are still very open.

Never mock or write Cristiano Ronaldo off, he jut gave Al Nassr the win and that's how you know Cristiano Ronaldo isn't finish. Bring him to Europe, put him in the PSG team that Messi has been flopping and watch him take that squad to the champion league final. Ronaldo wants to win and that's showing in his attitude on the pitch. Ronaldo scored a brilliant goal that many youngster can't score outside the penalty box. I believe Ronaldo teammates are the ones letting him down and time after time he has come to the rescue of the club.

Yesterday he gave Al Nassr the win that pushes the club closer to the title, Ronaldo is 38 so we shouldn't be expecting only him to be carrying the club, though he has already been doing it since the start of when he signed for Al Nassr. When Ronaldo doesn't turn up shoudn't result to we laughing him because we'll just look stupid as he'll always show why he he's regarded as the Goat. There has now been 28 games played and just 2 left to go, the title race is still open as Al-Ittihad might bottle the lead just as Arsenal did in the premier league.

Did you place a bet? because I didn't and if you did you would have made a profit now. Al Nassr was left behind by two goals from Al Shabab before finally Talisca and then Ghareeb scored followed by a goal from Ronaldo which finally allowed them to win the game and keep their chances as Ittihad's competitors in the remaining two matches that they still have to do. However, Al Nassr's position remains unprofitable because their fate is largely determined by the results of Ittihad's next match, because Ittihad still won against Al Baten at the same time as Al Nassr's match, although with a very thin score.

Unfortunately, Ittihad, who looked very likely to score a lot of goals in this match, was only able to score one goal in the 9th minute and after that, no goals were created, but this result still allowed them to maintain their position in the standings properly and indeed we won't be able to find interesting odds if the match is a strong team against a weak team like in this match because Al Baten is almost impossible to win against Ittihad, in the next two matches the odds will be different on Ittihad because the opponent is in a better position than Al Baten.

@onecall123 it’s kinda ironic that we’re talking more about Messi here rather than discuss more about Ronaldo who fought and got those 3 valuable points for his team. Furthermore Ronaldo has shown that he won’t be bothered about the media and those who criticise him and that he will simply answer by scoring goals and this goal is a reminder that he has lots to offer to this league.

Cristiano Ronaldo has done it again! It's amazing how he keeps performing despite his age. I mean, let's face it - there's no cure for old age. But there's no way stopping him from scoring winning goals! But, we can't deny other players effort on the field. Talisca in particular made a beautiful goal that was definitely worth watching.

Al-Ittihad came so close to winning Saudi Pro League, they really put up a great fight. And while Al Nassr ended up taking home the championship, I didn't see it coming.

If Messi returns to Barcelona it could also have to do with his future plans in general. Now he is still relatively young and it is not very likely that he is going to take on a role in the management just yet, but I don't know whether he has ever said a word about his career after he quits playing soccer. I don't see him as a coach to be honest, but I could be wrong of course

Ronaldo scored the decisive goal in this game and the rumors are everywhere. In Spain some media published news that they allegedly have heard that Ronaldo wants to quit playing in the SPL, but that he would be facing penalties from Al-Nassr and also from the relevant football associations and that he could get suspended for four months and what not. I think he will fulfill his contract there. You don't give your signature for such a huge contract without thinking about it at least 5 times when you are Ronaldo.

Ronaldo tried a lot and he made another great jump to nearly head of opponent defenders but unluckily his headshot hits the cross bar. Finally he got one goal for Al Nassr and it is a winning goal for his team too. This win is not enough to help Al Nassr to get a first position but it helps to keep their hope until the final day of season.

They will need Al Itihad lose a match to catch the competitor on the table and time is no longer at Al Nassr. Anyway in football, when there is time and match remains, there is still hope for comeback or flippening.

Ronaldo did tried a lot but in the match, we can see that his body is no longer like just two or three years ago. He can not fight against defenders physically well and most of physical fights, he lost.

Talisca is a best scorer for Al Nassr in this season and he as well as Ronaldo tried to find and connect with each other more and more. They wanted to build connection and play better together. However it is kind of too late for the club in this season but with this improvement in their connection, if they both stay in Al Nassr, they will become a very dangerous dual attacking players in a new season.

Two more matches left for both the teams. Al-Ittihad will be with increased pressure than Al-Nassr. It looks like Al-Nassr have got adopted to the second position. Al-Ittihad needs to keep its first place it needs to win both the matches. Both were against Al Feiha and Al-Taee. Both teams can be easily won by Al-Ittihad. Lets see if Al-Nassr team along with Ronaldo could do any miracles to reach the first position. Al-Nassr matches were against Ettifaq and Al Fateh, and match against Al Fateh seems to be little fighting.

Al Nassr has been performing very well this season but today's game was very interesting. Meanwhile, Al Shabab was a standout player with Christian Guanca scoring two goals with his leg magic shortly after the start of the match. Anderson Talisca scored a goal for Al Nassr in the 42nd minute, two minutes after Al Shabab scored the last goal. Al Nassr scored two more goals before and shortly after half time. A huge win for Al Nassr with a one goal win and they are second in the points table. And a better performance later on will see him top the points table as Cristiano Ronaldo is still capable of scoring goals when he drives towards the goal post with great speed in his aged body.

This match was quite interesting, Al-Nassr was 2 scores behind there, but the goals made by Talisca gave good hope to Al-Nassr. The first half Al-Shabab lead with a score difference of one, but in the second half Al Nassr got a successful winning, a great comeback. In this match Ronaldo gave his best goal for Al-Nassr, fortunately they won three points today, but still it doesn't change their situation they are still in second position at the standings.

We are talking about a league where anything could happen, so I wouldn't really consider anyone to be better than anyone, sure the bottom and the top has a huge difference in talent and that is why there is a good chance that Ittihad will get a win. But at the end of the day football is more complicated and anything could happen.

I still think that Ronaldo will be upset by the end of the season for not getting the league title, so he will just commit himself to being better physically and in talent and he will come back next season with a lot more revenge on his mind and playing a lot better as well. Plus the team will make some moves that will fit him a lot more, and maybe couple of his older players as well, and then they may do a lot better as well.

At this moment there is a top game and it doesn’t look good for Cristiano Ronaldo and Al-Nasr Riad. They need to win to have a chance at 1st place in the league, but the current score is 2-0 Al-Shabab and Guanca scored both goals. Someone will be very angry today…. Cristiano has only scored 2 goals in the last 7 games.

Edit: now 1:2, it looks a little better now

The downside is that if Messi goes to Barcelona it's like going back to a stage in his life where it didn't go very well, and they're needing him just to be able to get him out of the hole where the club is, if this was the case then why did they kick him out from Barcelona where he was doing very well? He didn't take him out and they preferred to put in only very young players thinking that he was going to be better and it's not like that, it's the same result that he got in Spain and the World Cup, it's a Great loss for this team, I think poor Xavi has done a lot ,but he does not have enough material to Access a high-profile cup like the UC,even Though he has Lewa, it is not Enough.

As we edge closer to the end of the season, teams are crunching numbers harder than an office full of tax auditors. The situation at Ronaldo's team is a classic rich paradox - money can buy you all the big names, but it doesn't guarantee smart tactics. It's like having a flash new Ferrari with no one ace behind the wheel - such a shame. On paper, today's match should be a walk in the park for Ronaldo's team, considering the other guys' recent slump. But football's a weird game - it's often the little guy who knocks the big one off his perch. They can't afford to be too cocky.

Relying on penalties to bulk up their goal count might be a plan, but it just smacks of desperation, a patch-up for a weak attack game. Win or lose, this should be a reality check about the need for a top-notch coach. After all, you can't win a chess match just by shuffling your queen around!

Actually this is an uninteresting game as both teams are from the bottom half of the SPL table, however, the interesting thing going on here is that Al-Khaleej is a team that is struggling to escape the relegation zone and they did that after beating Al-Wehda. There are still 2 games left, and anything can happen to them. Al-Raed and Abha will be their 2 remaining opponents, what do you think? Can Al-Khaleej escape the relegation zone at the end of the season?

In this match Al Nassr had a quite crucial match against Al Shabab, a match that was not easy for Al Nassr to overthrow the opposing team. because Al Shabab has the chance to overthrow Al Nassr, even though the match is played at Al Nassr's headquarters. but at least, Al Nassr is more favored because they are the home team. plus, Al Shabab's performance is in a decline in their last two matches. unfortunately, I don't have much information regarding the predicted starting line-up of the two teams that will compete. so, it is difficult to dig up more information regarding the tactics and systems that will be applied by the two coaches in this match. but if we refer to the available odds, Al Nassr is far superior to Al Shabab.
by the way, it looks like choosing Al Nassr with odds @1.82 is ideal for me. so, I will bet on the home team.

Al Nassr vs Al Shabab = Al Nassr


Well, we agree that this match should not be a problem for the home team. it's only natural that Al Ittihad is superior because their opponent is a team in the relegation zone, this match is also a momentum for Al Ittihad to continue to strengthen their position at the top of the standings. In this match, Nuno Santo is targeting his team to gain full points as well as return to winning ways after being held to a draw by Al Hilal the previous week. unfortunately, the available odds are not quite ideal for me @1.15. another option, bet on the handicap -2 at odds @1.71. the scenario, at least Al Ittihad will score 2 goals in this match.

Ittihad FC vs Al Batin = -2 Ittihad FC

Now this match is very interesting to watch especially Al Nassr who are still struggling to take over the standings they are only 3 points behind
Al Nassr has no many choices they have to beat all opponents including in the remaining 3 matches and waiting for Ittihad to lose in the coming match
Today the two teams play at home we will see who managed to secure 3 points, I think the two teams are suitable for parlay bets.

Two matches that will be played by two competing teams to rise to the top of the standings will be held today.

Al Nassr vs Al Shabab
Al Nassr will benefit enough from this big match at home so that the support from the fans who are present directly at the stadium will give them the motivation to get 3 full points, but Al Shabab is not an easy opponent for them to beat, in several meetings, the two teams beat each other well when as a home or away team, Al Nassr in the last two meetings was able to win with a fairly convincing score, and was also able to draw against Al Shabab which was an away game for Al Nassr. Al Shabab no longer has a target because it is no longer possible to compete with Ittihad and Al Nassr so they will play without a burden so they can steal points in this match. If the final result is a draw then it will be unpleasant for Al Nassr who still has to make up for the point deficit from Ittihad, so the only way to keep Al Nassr's chances is to defeat his opponent.

Ittihad FC vs Al Baten
This match should not be a difficult match for Ittihad to win because Al Baten's conditions are inversely proportional to theirs, Al Baten will certainly be relegated while Ittihad only needs a few more points to ensure themselves as champions this season. I predict this will be a match that Ittihad will use to score a lot of goals so that if at the end of the season, the winner will be decided between them and their competitors later on goal difference because they have the same points then Ittihad will be the league champion, but Ittihad cannot underestimate Al Baten because sometimes the bottom team can destroy what is targeted because of the condescension of the opponent.

Looking at the odds given by the bookmakers in this match, it seems that there is no chance for Al Baten to beat Ittihad FC even a draw will be hard for them, so Ittihad will win and the point difference will remain the same or even increase if Al Nassr can only draw against Al Shabab or even lose.

And we will never find out whether Ronaldo pushed so hard and gave that interview against Manchester United exactly because he was hoping that they are going to fire him. Nobody knows whether negotiations with Al-Nassr had long been done back then. If that is what happened then they have a confidentiality agreement about it. But when I had to give an answer to that question, I think that Ronaldo already knew he was going to play in the SPL for 200 million per year.
