The former Manchester United player failed to win any trophies last season despite scoring 14 goals in 16 league matches.

However, he gave a superb performance reminiscent of the most important performance in European finals when Al-Nassr won the final of the Arab Club Champions Cup, the top club competition on the continent.

Al-Nassr face teammates Al-Hilal in the final, a team that includes recent Premier League duo Kalidou Koulibaly and Ruben Neves in the starting line-up, as well as former Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. Al-Hilal took the lead thanks to Brazilian striker Michael in the 51st minute.

Things got even worse for Ronaldo and Al-Nassr when defender Abdulelah Al-Amri received a red card 20 minutes later. However, that only made Ronaldo even more excited, who equalized just 4 minutes later.

From the Al-Nassr player’s quick counterattack, Ronaldo accurately cushioned the ball a few meters from close range to equalize.

The striker barely had time to celebrate before VAR overturned the penalty awarded to Al-Hilal against Al-Nassr.

Al-Nassr held out until the final whistle blew, forcing the two teams to play extra time and that’s when this man appeared.

Ronaldo scored the decisive goal in the 98th minute while the entire Al-Nassr team had to fend off Al-Hilal due to lack of players.

The Portugal international played a central role in the club’s run to the final, scoring in the 87th minute to help Al-Nassr reach the knockout stages, as well as scoring the only goal of the semi-final.

In total, he scored 6 goals in just 6 matches in the tournament and became the top scorer. He became the first player from Al-Nassr to win this individual title.

Another notable statistic is that Ronaldo has won all 9 finals in which he scored. The Portuguese superstar also reached the milestone of scoring 25 goals in a calendar year for the 17th time.

This is the first time Al-Nassr has won the Arab Club Champions Cup in history. Although this tournament is not too prestigious, it is still a notable title because this is Ronaldo’s first title with his new team. This is also the 35th title in CR7’s collection.

Obviously, Ronaldo is still declaring war at the right time. At the age of 38, CR7 still races tirelessly with the ultimate desire to win.
