Ronaldo’s Double Strike Not Enough as Al-Nassr Falls to Almería

Cristiano Ronaldo continues to defy expectations. In a recent friendly, the 40-year-old Portuguese legend delivered a stunning performance for Cristiano Ronaldo Al-Nassr, scoring two goals against Almería. Although the team ultimately lost 3-2, Ronaldo’s form has fans buzzing with excitement for the new season.

From the first whistle, Ronaldo showed his class. He put Al-Nassr ahead in the 17th minute with a clinical finish, a powerful right-footed shot that left the goalkeeper with no chance. The assist came from his teammate, Sadio Mané, showcasing the growing partnership between the two stars. Just before the break, Ronaldo was on the scoresheet again, this time from the penalty spot. His composure under pressure once again highlighted why he is considered one of the greatest of all time.

The match also saw the much-anticipated Iñigo Martínez debut. The Spanish defender, who recently made the switch from Barcelona, will be a key player for Al-Nassr this season. With a star-studded lineup that also includes João Félix and Ângelo, the team has high hopes for the upcoming tournaments.
