Cristiano Ronaldo continues to be an inspiration with the Al-Nassr skipper continuing to register new records. Cristiano and Lionel Messi have gone back and forth as the greatest players of our generation. However, the latest game against Al-Wehda saw Cristiano take a step ahead of La Pulga. The Al-Nassr skipper was in sublime form as he scored 3 goals, helping his team pick up a 4-1 win.

The 3-goal tally also saw Cristiano Ronaldo cross the 50-goal mark for the season. Before the ongoing campaign, Lionel Messi and Ronaldo were level for 50+ goal seasons, with both players crossing the milestones during six seasons in their careers. However, the numbers from this season have seen Cristiano Ronaldo take the jump ahead of Lionel Messi, with the Portuguese crossing the landmark for the 7th time.

This season’s statistics have propelled Ronaldo ahead, marking his 7th season achieving this milestone, leaving Messi behind. While La Pulga seems to be in good touch this season, Cristiano has put on remarkable numbers for his club. The Al Nassr skipper has single-handedly kept his team alive in the Saudi Pro League, with the Knights of Najd chasing the trophy. While that would be a farfetched dream, Cristiano Ronaldo and his men have the chance to end the season on a high.

Cristiano Ronaldo eyeing his first major trophy with Al Nassr

With Al Hilal dominating the Saudi Pro League, Cristiano Ronaldo-led Al Nassr has pinned their hopes on the Kings Cup to salvage a title this season. As Ronaldo approaches his 40th birthday next year, he’s likely in his final years with Al Nassr. Despite maintaining peak physical condition, expecting him to continue playing for more than two years might be unrealistic. This could be the Portuguese talisman’s best chance to lift the league title alongside the Middle Eastern outfit.

The 6-0 win over Al Wehda will surely boost the team’s confidence heading into their upcoming games. With Al Nassr’s clash against Al Hilal just a game away, Luis Castro could provide his key players with some much-needed rest against Al Akhdoud. Cristiano alongside Sadio Mane, Otavio, and Al Fatill was among the goals and could be provided with some time off the bench to prepare for their game against the Blue Waves.
