Al-Nasr secured a morale-boosting victory in the final match without Ronaldo.
Previously, it was certain that Cristiano Ronaldo would miss the upcoming season due to an injury. This means he won't be able to play the final match, something he probably never imagined. However, the injury isn't severe.
Yesterday, Ronaldo couldn't be present as a witness to the team's victory in the final match due to his recent injury. Without him, Al-Nasr defeated Al-Fateh by a score of 3-0, concluding the season. The regular star of the Saudi club, Talisca, also showcased his magic yesterday. He put the team ahead within 4 minutes of the match.
After a caution, Talisca scored his second goal and the team's last goal in the net of Al-Fateh. The Brazilian forward scored the goal in the 72nd minute through a pass. Without any further goals, Al-Nasr secured a significant victory in the final match.
Despite being unable to play the match due to the injury suffered yesterday, Ronaldo received good news. He has secured a place in the national team under the new coach, Roberto Martinez. He will play in the UEFA qualifiers and aim for his fifth Ballon d'Or victory. Being Al-Nasr's first season, the Portuguese star has scored 14 goals in 16 league matches.
