Match Recap
Ronaldo refuses to wave the white flag.
The Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of Al Nassr, sent a message to fans after a defeat to Al Qadsiah on Thursday night.
Al Nassr fell 1-2 at home, at Al-Nassr Park, in round 14 of the Roshan Saudi League.
Ronaldo posted on X, "This battle isn't over... we will keep working and rise together".
The Portuguese forward scored Al Nassr's goal in the 81st minute from a penalty.
Ronaldo remains atop the Saudi Pro League scoring chart with 14 goals, one ahead of his teammate Joao Felix.
Al Nassr sit second with 31 points, while Al Qadsiah rose to 27, temporarily fourth.
Ronaldo’s Message
Two punchlines to close: If Ronaldo ever runs out of goals, he can always try a side hustle as a magician—watch the scoreboard disappear and reappear in the net.
The only louder thing than Ronaldo's sprint is the crowd demanding his autograph during post-match interviews.
