While Cristiano Ronaldo is still struggling to find his first title at Al Nassr, Neymar is recovering from injury and is lifting championships with Al Hilal this season.
Loss to Al Hilal in the final of the Saudi King’s Cup caused superstar Cristiano Ronaldo to once again lose the opportunity to win his first major title with Al Nassr. Despite showing a brilliant performance this season, the Portuguese player was unable to experience any title with his parent team.
Through 51 matches with Al Nassr this season, Ronaldo has contributed 50 goals and 13 assists. This is an unbelievable achievement, especially when looking at the 39-year-old age of the former Real Madrid star. However, this does not mean that Al Nassr will have the feeling of tasting the title this season.
After losing in the Riyadh Season Cup final to Al Hilal earlier this year, Al Nassr continued to slide when eliminated from the AFC Champions League. Things showed no signs of stopping when coach Luis Castro’s team appeared out of breath in the championship race with Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League, and in the end the championship went to this opponent.
It seemed that Ronaldo and his teammates would have a sweet revenge in the Kings Cup final, but their ungodliness made them pay the price when they once again became defeated at the hands of Al Hilal.
Since arriving at Al Nasr, Ronaldo has not been able to have the opportunity to lift any championship with the team. This is considered an extremely unfortunate thing if you look at the great contributions that the Portuguese superstar has brought to this team.
In contrast to Ronaldo’s empty-handed situation, striker Neymar experienced a “dreamlike” season with Al Hilal. It can be affirmed that the Brazilian striker did not contribute too much to the titles that Al Hilal won this season, because he was seriously injured at the beginning of the season and did not participate in any matches after that. .
The last match that Neymar played for Al Hilal was last October, specifically, the 32-year-old player only had 5 matches for the Arab team, scoring only 1 goal and 1 goal. construction line.
Despite such a small contribution, the Brazilian superstar has also had the honor of lifting the championship four times with Al Hilal with the titles of the Arab Super Cup, winning the Riyadh Season Cup, Saudi Pro League. and the latest is the Saudi King’s Cup.
We can see the complete contrast between the two superstars who once “made waves” in Europe when Ronaldo, although still shining, could not win any titles with Al Nassr. Meanwhile, Neymar made very little contributions, but the 32-year-old superstar still had a successful season when he and Al Hilal collected titles.
