Ronaldo’s Championship Dream Shattered Once Again. Will he bounce back?

 

On the night of May 11, Al Hilal became the new king of the Saudi Arabia National Championship after a 4-1 victory over Al Hazem in round 41.

Ronaldo has not been able to win a title in the Middle East, except for the friendly cup at the beginning of the season.

3 points at home helped Al Hilal win the title 3 rounds early. At this time, Malcom and his teammates were 12 points ahead of the 2nd place team, Al Nassr. With 3 matches yet to play, Al Nassr cannot catch up with their city rivals.

Al Hilal has the 19th national championship in history. Meanwhile, Al Nassr finished second in the SPL for the second consecutive season. Ronaldo and his teammates paid a high price for putting too much effort into the Arab Cup friendly tournament at the beginning of the season, only to perform poorly in the first phase of SPL 2023/24.

In addition, two losses in direct confrontation against Al Hilal this season were also the main reason why Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates sadly won second place.

Al Nassr has recruited superstar Cristiano Ronaldo and a series of “satellites” to serve the former Man Utd star, but still cannot win the SPL championship title after 5 years of waiting.

Al Hilal won the Super Cup and Saudi Pro League and faced the opportunity to extinguish Ronaldo’s dream of winning his first title in the Middle East. On June 1, Saudi Arabia’s two top clubs will face off in the King’s Cup final.

If Al Hilal wins, Neymar will win his third title with Al Hilal, even though he missed most of the season due to injury. Meanwhile, Ronaldo will sadly have a second consecutive season empty-handed, although he still maintains good form with 48 goals in just 47 appearances.
