Al Hilal and Al Nassr are currently the elite clubs we will be watching in the new season, both of them dominated the SPL previous season. Al Nassr in the final and Ronaldo is rare gem that made it possible for his side, he's there to deliver them in difficult times and moments. Ronaldo will trigger amazing game outcome for the club. Cristiano Ronaldo have been absolutely great in all sectors for Al Nassr. He's the best player in Saudi Pro League, always coming up hitting the very best performance.

That's why he is the GOAT, isn't he? - never in doubt. Delivering when it matters. The most clutch player of all time, the one and only. 

Well well, Al Nasr have faced their fair share of troubles so far, whenever they faced Al Hilal. They just manage to overpower Al Nassr every time. Even though the semis were a bit shaky, I have a good feeling this is where they get back and again cluster over Al Nasr.

The match between these two powerhouses will be exciting though, as always!

Cristiano Ronaldo is definitely getting older but his body shape and movement doesn't make him look old at all. His running speed on the field and the way he plays make him look like a young man. Since joining football he is very conscious about his body and even his fitness is correct. Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal in the 57th minute for Al Nasr in the semi-final match of the Saudi Super Cup. After a long time we got to see his old celebration on the field. Maybe in the final match he will continue his performance and do the goal celebration that is still popular with many people. The Saudi Super Cup Final Match will begin tomorrow and Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nasser and Neymar Jr.'s Al Hilal will be competing.

Maybe this match will not be easy for Al-Nasher as their opponents are very strong even they are one of the most successful teams in the Saudi Super Cup. In 2023, they beat Karim Benzema's side Al Ittihad to win the title. This time also they participated in this tournament as defending champions and even reached the finals. Al Hilal is already a four-time champion of the Saudi Super Cup, if they become the champion this time, i.e. the champion of 2024, then they will achieve the glory of becoming the champion for the fifth time.

It is true that Al Nasr's performance is not much different from last season. However, this is quite good because Al Nasr is able to maintain consistent performance well. Because as I said above Al Nasr is better than Al Hilal at the moment. The reason is, Al Hilal is currently experiencing a decline in performance and in essence is not maintaining the consistency of its performance well. This means that Al Nasr can now match or even beat Al Hilal. Because it seems that the Al Nasr players now look more solid so their performance is increasing. Maybe last season many new Al Nasr players arrived, such as Mane and several other European club players. So it is natural that Al Nasr's performance last season did not end optimally. Because these players have not adapted well. However, this season it looks like Al Nasr will show a much better performance, because the players already seem to have quite good chemistry. Apart from that, Talisca has also now recovered from her injury, so this will be very useful for Al Nasr. So I am very confident that in this final match, Al Nasr will definitely win it. Apart from that, I also haven't found a betting market regarding the Al Nasr match against Al Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup final. Maybe because this final match is not very well known, gambling sites don't highlight this match too much. But even so, I will not miss this match. Because of course this final match will definitely be very exciting to watch.

Saudi League club Al Nasser stood by his bad times and will continue to stand by Ronaldo. According to various reports, it sounds like Ronaldo will end his career with Al Nasser. However, he wants time from the club until the 2026 World Cup as he has a lot of desire to play for Portugal in the 2026 World Cup.  

Ronaldo is a hard working and very stubborn player so even if he is to play till 2026 World Cup he will work hard and try to perform well for Al Nasser  Although he performed poorly in the Euro tournament for Portugal, his performance in the Saudi league is not so bad, so of course the Saudi club Al Nasser may give him more opportunities and extend his contract. Even if Ronaldo's performance is a bit bad, it will be profitable for the club to extend the contract with Ronaldo, because Ronaldo has many fans around the world who directly follow Al Nasser, it is definitely profitable for Al Nasser.

Ronaldo is 39 years old and in February next year he will be 40 years old. But look, he always sets records and it is very fitting that his physique is like a 25 year old player because he is so strong at running and competing on the field that his goal contributions continue to occur in every match. By successfully defeating Al Taawon, Ronaldo et al managed to reach the final of the Saudi Super Cup and Al Nassr will face Al Hilal to become champions. I think Ronaldo's ambitions in the Saudi super cup final will be quite big because he wants to present a trophy to the fans and he will try as hard as possible.

Al Hilal also cannot be underestimated because they have quite strong strength and the Final match will definitely be quite interesting because both teams are equally strong. So, if you look at the last 5 matches between Al Hilal vs Al Naasr, of course Al Hilal was able to dominate by winning 4 wins. And can Ronaldo bring Al Nassr to victory in tomorrow's match because it will be special if they succeed in doing so.

It seems that Cristiano Ronaldo's glory is still not over. He immediately made himself score 1 goal again in that match. And I even liked C.Ronaldo in that match when he made a beautiful pass for Mane and managed to trick his opponent with a small touch. And not only did he score a goal, but in that match, C. Ronaldo also made an assist, even though it was only a light touch. In essence, I am happy with this result even though Al-Nassr was also quite disadvantaged because one of Al-Nassr's players received a red card, namely Marcelo Brozovic, in the added minute of stoppage time. Now we just have to wait to see whether Al-Nassr will also win in the final or not. but I hope they can win. because I hope that in the end they can defeat Al-hilal. because we know that last season Al-nassr always failed to beat Al-hilal.

It can be interpreted that Al Qadsiah efforts to build squad depth are a form of their refusal to no longer be relegated, in other words they want to compete in the main Saudi competition and want to be a team that is taken into account by other contestants. To become a new force, it seems that Al Qadsiah needs extra effort, not enough to bring in Aubameyang, Nacho Fernandez, and Paulo Dybala. I think their move to recruit Paulo Dybala aims to increase the club prestige, and of course more broadly will make the Saudi Pro League level more competitive than the previous season.

Reportedly, Roma management also encouraged Paulo Dybala to establish communication with Al Qadsiah, besides that De Rossi seems to want to benefit from the sale of the Argentine player in order to bring in Federico Chiesa from Juventus. If you look at it from a financial perspective, Paulo Dybala can make all parties feel at an advantage if they want to move to Saudi. A luxurious contract with a salary of up to 100 million in a period of 3 years is an opportunity that cannot be missed. But so far there has been no official confirmation from Paulo Dybala, maybe he is considering some other requirements.

Ronaldo is from another planet because I found this amazing stellar statistical data of Cristiano Ronaldo to be disturbing. On the records, he has surpassed all physically balance players which are in the early 20s and 30s, Ronaldo is in his late 30s and still very active interms of goal scoring. He lean on the shoulders and helping hands from his teammates, he didn't achieve greatness on his own, but from the provided aides, he in-turn utilized them to the very best of his capacity and advantage. Al Nassr are lucky enough to have Cristiano Ronaldo.

Interesting, after bringing in several European players and some of them are Aubameyang and Nacho Fernandez. now the promoted team, Al Qadsiah, is again rumored to want to recruit AS Roma player, Paolo Dybala, a three-year contract has been prepared and negotiations are underway between all parties involved to agree on every detail of the deal. before there is a green light, the main details are still being discussed. it seems, it's only a matter of time for Al Qadsiah to bring Dybala to Saudi. in this summer's transfer window, Al Qadsiah is the most active team in recruiting European players. which means that even though they are a promoted team, they want to become an elite team in the LPS by bringing in several players with big names. they will provide competition with teams that are under the auspices of the PIF company. I think this is interesting, with the players brought in by Al Qadsiah, theoretically they will be a team that is quite troublesome for big teams.

Ronaldo has now scored consistently in 23 league seasons and he is getting closer to his 1000th goal which is going to be his focus come this season. He is just few goals away from 900 and he can get that this season. It felt good seeing Cristiano Ronaldo score after finding it difficult to score in the concluded Euros tournament and he was being labeled finished by rival fans and sport journalist. The game was a pleasure to watch as I enjoyed it, I was a little disappointed as I thought there was going to be more goals and not just two goals. Al Nassr are in another final and maybe this time they can be lucky to win because it is against their biggest enemies. Al Hillal is a very strong opponent for Al Nassr because they haven't been able to beat them for over few games since they have met but there's hope because if Ronaldo is back in form. He can help Al Nassr to win finally and they'll lift the Saudi Super Cup›.

Let's go back to the performance shown by Ronaldo at EURO with Portugal. His performance was not satisfactory and could not exceed expectations or at least meet expectations. But in my opinion that is a very natural thing, because at his current age he has lost a lot of his playing style because it is no longer possible, for example in terms of speed. The question is why is he still called and the coach still trusts him? Well, maybe the coach has his own assessment and comparing the attackers that Portugal has, the coach thinks Ronaldo is the most worthy of trust. Actually, there is no one to blame in my opinion, because if there is a better player, the coach will choose him, but in my opinion there are not many choices in the front line now. It is possible for the coach to rotate players, but that also has risks.

I had also wondered the reason for this failure of Ronaldo's performance. Yet he always seemed to me to be a professional who works hard and trains hard. Maybe his presence in the Saudi league is starting to collapse? Maybe they no longer want to pay his salary? I don't know, I've heard bad news about his future.
Of course he won't be able to find a job at those crazy figures.

after having spent 3 billion and bought many players and many coaches, the dream of the Saudi league is shattered
This is what I read in this article and since I don't follow you very much I would like an opinion on who you follow

Is it all true or just fake news?

Ronaldo continued to extend his record with his first goal of the season with Al-Nassr and made his name as a player who has always been able to score goals in the last 23 seasons of his career. Al-Nassr's victory against Al-Taaowun with a score of 0-2 led them to advance to the final round of the Saudi Super Cup which will face Al-Hilal on August 17.

In this match, both teams actually played quite evenly in terms of ball possession but Al-Nassr created more opportunities. As a result, they managed to score a goal convincingly and had no problems at all in securing the victory. But towards the end of the match, Al-Nassr had to suffer a loss because Brozovic got a red card which resulted in him being absent from the final match later. I think even though Al-Nassr could secure the victory, they lost an attack creator in midfield and I think this will make it difficult for them.

Yes, i also don't deny that, lately Al-Hilal has always been a nightmare for Al-Nassr, they were defeated in the King's Cup, Riyadh Season Cup & also in the league. Al-Hilal still has the biggest chance of winning at the bookies, maybe this time it will be different or repeat previous events.

By the way, thanks to Al-Nassr for the easy money in the match against Al-Taawoun, i want matches like last night again.

Everyone's humming about Ronaldo and his outstanding performance in the semis. And rightly so, he's been performing as the legendary player he is. Al Hilal's performance in finals is what we have all seen; they are not pushovers. Even on their worst day, they have the experience and discipline to create issues. Recall that Al Nassr's record against them in the finals hasnt exactly been outstanding.

Al Hilal may have had a little fright against Al Ahli, but a team this caliber knows how to rise to the occasion. They will be entering the final with a point of evidence, hence we should expect them to perform with A-grade.

Thus, even if I like the hope around Al Nassr and Ronaldo, this final will be a test of strategy and mental toughness. Al Nassr will require a game plan that can counter Al Hilal's strengths and take advantage of their shortcomings, not only personal ability to overcome Al Hilal.

As previously expected, Al Nassr was finally able to conquer Al Taawoun even though they had to work hard to do it, Ronaldo and Al Nassr have the opportunity to get their first trophy this season and I hope they don't waste this opportunity like last season, Ronaldo of course  be players who had a big contribution to Al Nassr victory yesterday by scoring one goal and one assist which helped Al Nassr get to the final, Al Hillal has always been a team that has always been difficult for Al Nassr to beat and I hope they can break Al Hillal dominance in the next seasons including beat Al Hillal in the final of the Saudi Super Cup later. The Saudi Super Cup final match will be played in two days and of course winning the trophy will be a good start for both teams before playing the SPL match, so of course both teams will focus and try hard to get the trophy.

Age is a big factor in the game of football. If the player is old then age can affect him and he has to gradually withdraw from football. Ronaldo may be able to maintain his fitness because he maintains everything well, but even if he is physically fit, age may have had some effect on his performance. Ronaldo's performance for the team now will only create controversy for him so he should respectfully decide to retire so that people will talk about the end of his career for ages. I have seen many people questioning why he is playing for Portugal when he can't perform but those who are asking such questions may have forgotten what Ronaldo has done for Portugal. However, even if we don't see Ronaldo perform well as a player, we may see him as a good manager in the future.

Yeah overall I have to say Al-Nassr played well but it doesn't mean they are better than last season because their opponents are not the best teams in the Saudi Pro League, to see if Al-Nassr has improved we have to wait for the final match we know Al-Hilal is a worthy opponent for Al-Nassr and the winner of this match will be able to win the title as well. I haven't found a betting market for the final match I checked it on stake.com and it's not available yet, have any of you checked it on other sportsbooks? I want to see what the odds are for both teams to score, maybe this is easy money.
