Ronaldo wins Saudi Pro League with Al-Nassr. Cristiano Ronaldo powered Al Nassr to the Saudi Pro League title, securing a 4-1 victory over Damac FC on the final day of the season.
The win ended a six-year league title drought for the Riyadh-based club.
Cristiano Ronaldo, without the scoring crown, still conquered Saudi Arabia
In his third season in Saudi Arabia and after a recent defeat in the final of the AFC Champions League 2, Cristiano Ronaldo finally won the national championship with Al-Nasr.
The Portuguese shone in the decisive match with two goals—first with a precise free kick, then with a powerful strike to confirm the final success.
The Portuguese is not the league’s top scorer this season, but he was in the first two. With this new title, he reached a historical milestone that confirms his competitive longevity: he became the only footballer in history to win the league title and the title of top scorer in four different countries.
A unique achievement
Ronaldo has played in England, Spain, Italy and now Saudi Arabia throughout his career. He has won both club and individual trophies with Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus and Al-Nasr.
The statistics confirm his uniqueness, as no other player has been so strong in four different premier league competitions at such a high level.
The latest goals were his 973rd and 974th goals in his professional career. The Portuguese striker now has eight national championship titles on his CV, placing him in the circle of a select few. But he still has two big goals ahead of him: the World Cup and the 1,000-goal mark.
