First time in six months! Ronaldo has failed to score for Al-Nassr in three consecutive matches
Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr battled Al-Hilal at home in today's Saudi Pro League clash. The match ended in a 1-1 draw, halting the reigning champions’ incredible winning streak.
Ronaldo himself only received a yellow card today, extending his scoreless streak to three games. Notably, the last time he went this long without scoring was back in April. The Portuguese star last found the net on October 18 against Al-Shabab. Since then, various statistical platforms have been rating the legendary forward's performances more modestly.
For Al-Hilal, this is the first time in their last 18 matches, including penalty shootouts, that they failed to win. Remarkably, Al-Nassr has been unbeaten by them in 11 games since 2021. Additionally, in the Pro League, Al-Nassr has been undefeated since April 2023, completing the entire previous season without a single loss.
Let's add that, as is now tradition, Al-Hilal fans in the stands chanted the name of the Portuguese star’s main rival.
