Al-Nassr lost the penalty shootout, allowing Al-Ahli to win this competition. Congratulations to Al-Ahli.
Al Ahly denied Ronaldo his second official trophy, and honestly, I felt disappointed about that. With the kind of players Al Nassr has now, I didn't expect them to lose in this Saudi Super final. I know Al Ahly is also a strong team, and both teams showed equal performance, but I had high expectations for Al Nassr to win this match. However, it ended in a penalty shootout, and Al Nassr's weakness in midfield affected their game. The absence of Sadio Mané also contributed to their loss. Cristiano Ronaldo put in effort to help the team win this trophy, but luck wasn't on their side but that's football, hard luck to them.
After today's result in the Saudi Super Cup between Al Nassr vs Al Ahly Saudi, I told the friend that watched the game with me that probably Cristiano Ronaldo is under a spell that's restricting him from winning a trophy in Saudi Arabia. The Portuguese superstar have been been very unlucky when it comes to winning trophies. Since he joined the Saudi club. When Brozovic scored in the 82nd I thought it was a moment Cristiano Ronaldo will finally break the jinx but their opponents had a different idea and even went on to make sure their idea counted at the end of the day. For a Cristiano Ronaldo who loves winning trophies, the result of that game will surely be very disappointing to him but there's nothing he can do about it at the moment other than continue to his give his best for Al Nassr and continue to believe.
