Cristiano Ronaldo continues his marvelous season trying to finally hoist a big trophy with Al Nassr. Although the Saudi Pro League and the AFC Champions League are out of reach, there’s one last hope.

This Wednesday, during the semifinal of the King’s Cup, CR7 scored a magnificent goal to give a 1-0 lead to his club. It was a massive matchup considering archrival Al Hilal were waiting in the title game.

Ronaldo has been unstoppable in Saudi Arabia as the league’s top scorer with 29 goals. The Portuguese legend is close of reaching 900 goals in his professional career and is ready for his next big challenge during the summer: the UEFA Euro 2024.
