Al Nassr lost again, Ronaldo disappointed

On the morning of July 21, Cristiano Ronaldo and Al-Nassr Club proceeded to receive their second setback in a row in a European training tour against Benfica club with a score of 1-4.

The match was played in Portugal.Earlier, on July 18, the Al-Nassr club suffered a 0-5 defeat at the hands of Celta Vigo. Former Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo was quoted as saying in the past that “European football has lost a lot of quality today, only the English Premier League still retains its value, and that tournament is still above all.”

 

The Saudi Professional League has now also exceeded the leagues in Turkey, the Netherlands, and the Major League Soccer (MLS) in the United States.

After Al-Nassr club suffered their second loss in a row, Cristiano Ronaldo was mocked for his performance. – Photo 1.In both of his preseason games with Al-Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo was unable to live up to expectations.

The Portuguese player’s evaluation is based on the amount of stars from Europe who are scrambling to join clubs in Saudi Arabia recently, as well as the fact that Messi, the Portuguese player’s longstanding rival, has just transferred to Inter Miami Club in the United States.

 

However, in contrast to Cristiano Ronaldo’s judgment, the Al-Nassr club that this player plays for cannot be compared to teams like Celta Vigo or the most recent Benfica, when they both lost with a different score than the other team. This was the case during European training matches.

“Benfica or Celta Vigo have both shown a superior level compared to Al-Nassr club with Cristiano Ronaldo and rookie Brozovic playing,” claims an article from MailOnline. Cristiano Ronaldo was on the field for 84 minutes during the encounter against Benfica, although he did not make a meaningful impact on the game. Even this well-known player was outperformed on multiple occasions by Di Maria, the seasoned player for Benfica.

After Al-Nassr club suffered their second loss in a row, several fans made fun of Cristiano Ronaldo (Photo 2).Many people disagree with Cristiano Ronaldo’s appraisal of European football, and he has received a lot of criticism for his comments.

Benfica’s victory over Al-Nassr was aided by goals from Di Maria, Goncalo Ramos (two goals), and Schjelderup. Khalid Al-Ghannam of the Saudi Arabian team was the one who scored the goal that brought his team even.

Many users on social networking sites like Twitter point to Cristiano Ronaldo’s alleged underestimate of the level of football played in Europe together with recent results achieved by Al-Nassr club in order to make a comparison. A great number of individuals also commented, “Al-Nassr Club is about to face PSG on July 25 and Inter Milan on July 27, which are two of the best teams in Europe.” If the Saudi Arabia club fails again, would Cristiano Ronaldo still underestimate the level of football in Europe at that time?
