Coup of authority in Riyadh
Cristiano Ronaldo once again showed that age is just a number. This Wednesday, the Portuguese opened the scoring for Al Nassr, who ended up beating Al Ahli 2-0. Twenty consecutive victories, 79 points on the table and the Saudi Arabian League title getting closer and closer. There are five days left, but this team smells like a champion.
The match: From the opening whistle, it was clear that Al Nassr came out hungry. CR7, as always, appeared at the right time. His goal wasn’t just a shot; It was a declaration of intent. Control, definition and the network. The team maintained control, did not speculate, and sealed a victory that tastes like glory.
“Cristiano not only scored, he led. His presence on the field is a tactical and emotional plus,” commented a local analyst.
The CR7 factor: Beyond the goal, his leadership was key. He was seen marshalling the offensive line, putting pressure on every loose ball. That mentality of never giving up is contagious. In the locker room, they know they have a warrior who does not give up until the last minute.
What’s next: With this streak, Al Nassr is emerging as the big favorite. The advantage on the table is solid, but in football anything can happen. The important thing is that the team has found an unstoppable rhythm. Discipline and preparation are paying off.
Coach’s Look: This reminds me of when I ran in college and learned that streaks don’t build themselves. Behind every victory there are hours of gym, studying the opponent and teamwork. CR7 is the living example that talent without discipline is just a mirage.
In summary: Al Nassr not only won; sent a message. The title is in sight, but we still have to work hard. As my old coach would say: “Don’t celebrate before you cross the finish line.”
