Cristiano Ronaldo: Stats behind a terrible start to his Al-Nassr career
The great man has played two competitive matches for the Saudi Pro League leaders, but yet to get on the score sheet. He blanked in a 1-0 win against Ettifaq FC, and then his side got bundled out of the Saudi Super Cup where they lost 3-1 in the semifinals against Al-Ittihad. CR7 failed to get on the score sheet once more.
What’s next for Ronaldo?
Al-Nassr are next up against Al Fetteh in the Saudi Pro League next Friday. Their opponents are midtable and have lost three of their last four, so it’s an opportunity for CR7 and his teammates to get back on the winning train. Al-Nassr only has a one-point lead over Al-Hilal at the summit, so things are tight in the Saudi Pro League.
