With the win secured, Al Nassr has booked their berth into the finals of the Kings Cup. Cristiano Ronaldo and his men will now face Al Hilal in the finals weeks after their heated semifinal draw in the Saudi Super Cup. While Cristiano and his side would be eager to break their losing streak against their rivals, Al Hilal, on the other hand, will look to end the season with another trophy to their name.

Can Cristiano Ronaldo fulfill his promise to Al Nassr fans?

While Cristiano Ronaldo had set idealistic goals at the start of the season, things haven’t gone like planned for the Al Nassr skipper. Despite his attempts to win his first major title with the club, Cristiano has been empty-handed in his quest. With Al Hilal running away in the race for the Saudi Pro League title. Cristiano and his side can only bank on the Kings Cup to finish this season with a title in their cabinet.

With Ronaldo turning 40 next year, the Al Nassr skipper has to be in his final years with the club. Despite maintaining a perfect physique, expecting the Portuguese star to play for more than two years would be a farfetched scenario. With Al Nassr already in the Kings Cup finals, this could be the team’s best shot at winning a title during Cristiano’s tenure with the club!
