The way Al Nassr lost, was a humiliating one after spending that much on players. They were clearly the better team, and yet they still failed to win. That is the problem they have, even when they are the better team, they lose, and they can't afford to do that much. Ronaldo lost the chance to get one more cup, and it is really not looking good, been years since he got one, they got one on his first year and nothing after that.
A Nassr losing the Supercup to Al Ahli Jeddah was something i didn't see coming regardless that Al Ahli Jeddah is also a strong team because when i saw how they performed in their preseason games i was having some kind of mixed feelings if Al Nassr can win them. Like i always say, penalty is more of luck so Al Ahli Jeddah was the lucky team to have conquered through a penalty shoot out. Cristiano Ronaldo tried his best and put his team ahead by scoring in the first half but Al Ahli equalized the score before halftime and even when Al Nassr scored again in the second half, Al Ahli Jeddah still equalized it in the die minutes so they were literally more determined to win the Supercup than Al Nassr.
I really do hope that for his mental sake, they finally win something this year. Like if you were to compare the teams, I would say they actually have a chance to win this season, the whole league, they are good enough to make that happen. I can't see that right now though if they play like this.
Hmmm, i don't really comprehend what you are saying here because i can't figure out how not winning anymore trophy at Al Nassr will become a mental problem for Cristiano Ronaldo because this is a player that have won many titles in his football career. I think the target of Cristiano Ronaldo will be how he can break record of reaching 1000 career goals before his retirement. Sure, Al Nassr have all it takes to win a title this season but we shouldn't forget that there are also other strong teams in the league who are also looking forward to win the title this season so there will be a tough competition in the Saudi Professional League this season.
