There was no Last Dance between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, but the friendly between Al-Nassr and Inter Miami still gave a lot to talk about. With both stars on the sidelines, the Saudi team put on a show and put six past the MLS side. The Portuguese star watched all the action from the stands due to a calf injury, whereas Messi came on late in the second half.
Otavio put the Riyadh-based club in front after only three minutes, but the score was already 3-0 in less than 15′ thanks to Anderson Talisca (10′) and Aymeric Laporte, who netted a fantastic goal from midfield after 12′. Talisca made it four from the penalty spot after 51′, and completed a hat-trick after 73′, shortly after Mohammed Maran extended Al-Nassr’s lead. Watch the highlights and goals here:

The veteran striker is recovering from a calf injury that already forced the Saudi club to postpone two games in China last week. On Wednesday, Al-Nassr coach Luis Castro suggested CR7 isn’t at his best physical condition yet, though he did not confirm whether Cristiano will miss the match. Ronaldo will attend the stadium anyway, whether to play a few minutes or to support his team against the Miami squad led by Gerardo ‘Tata’ Martino.
While Al-Nassr are participating in the Riyadh Season Cup as the Saudi Pro League took a midseason break, Inter Miami have accepted an invitation to take part in the friendly tournament as part of their 2024 preseason tour ahead of the MLS season. Messi and company have already begun its participation in the competition with a 3-4 loss to Al-Hilal on Monday.
