Why did Ronaldo stop scoring for Al-Nasr?

11 November 2024

Hussein Abdulghani, the former star of Al-Ahly and Al-Nasr, revealed the secret behind the recent lack of goals from Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of Al-Nasr.

Ronaldo tried to score in the match against Riyadh, which ended with Al-Nasr winning 1-0, but the brilliance of Canadian goalkeeper Milan Borjan prevented him from doing so.

This is the third match in a row in which "Don" has failed to score in the Roshn League this season.

Ronaldo joined Al-Nasr in January 2023 after leaving English giants Manchester United with a contract for two and a half seasons until June 30, 2025.

It is noteworthy that Ronaldo scored 10 goals and provided 3 assists in 15 matches he played with Al-Nasr during the current season in various competitions.

Hussein Abdulghani said in television statements: "Ronaldo has different roles with the current coach Stefano Pioli and is always outside the opponents' penalty areas and his danger is in this area, and this was happening last year, unlike the current season, during which he is present on the flanks."

"Ronaldo doesn't have the strength to get the ball and run long distances," he added.
