Al-Nassr achieved a glorious victory against Al-Khaleej. A stunning goal by Cristiano Ronaldo from a distance to break the deadlock for Al-Nassr was vital to their victory. After CR7’s impressive goal, he received the Man of the Match award. The Portuguese superstar is in top form this season, having scored a league-leading 12 goals in 11 appearances. Al-Nassr’s spectacular victories have made the team’s coach, Luis Castro, beam with pride. He took the latest victory of the team as an opportunity to fire back against the critics.

Castro strongly believes that he could help the team achieve great victories in the season. The coach detailed that people who doubted him before have now changed their minds.

Luis Castro’s strong statement as Al Nassr maintained their winning run

Al Nassr hired Luis Castro back in July. The appointment was made official during a preseason training camp in Portugal, and they did not disclose the length of his contract. Back then, many doubted Castro’s ability to guide the team as he never trained in Europe. Recently, after the Saudi-based Club achieved its 9th victory in the league, Castro didn’t hold back. He said, “When I signed for Al Nassr, everyone doubted my arrival because hadn’t coached in Europe, etc…”.

“Now everyone respects me, and I’m very happy to be in this respectable country that loves soccer.” He further detailed how his team has showcased an extraordinary performance from the very beginning of the season. He strongly believes that all these top results come from sheer hard work. Castro is also someone who once acknowledged the great work of Ronaldo, and he once even shared his thoughts on the 38-year-old’s performance at the club. Let’s dive deeper.
