About a month after officially joining Al-Nasr Saudi Arabia, Cristiano Ronaldo has not yet scored his first official goal, and frustration increases after the team was eliminated in the middle of the week from the Saudi Super Cup.
It seems that some fans were disappointed and their patience began to run out due to the performance and level of the Portuguese star after the team lost 3-1 to Al-Ittihad in the match that was held at the “King Fahd” International Stadium.

Videos spread to Al-Nasr fans attacking their first star and the deal that these fans relied on a lot.
Although “CR7” scored two goals in the friendly match against Paris Saint-Germain, led by Lionel Messi, it missed an opportunity in the Super Cup confrontation.
Even French coach Rudi Garcia, “Al-Alamy”, expressed – after the end of the match – his regret that Ronaldo was unable to score this opportunity.
The “Don” missed a valuable opportunity to adjust in the 43rd minute of the match, as it received a cross from the right side, rose to it high and hit it with its head, but Brazilian goalkeeper Marcelo Grohe tackled it brilliantly.
“Cristiano Ronaldo missed a scoring opportunity that would have changed the course of the game in the first half, but congratulations to the federation,” Garcia said.
He added, “They were much better than us in the first half. We scored the goal to reduce the difference, but we were unable to turn the score around. We lost the Super Cup, but we still lead the league.”
newspaper quotes”MarcaSpain quoted Garcia as saying that Ronaldo wanted to return to European stadiums.
Garcia said in the press conference that followed the Al-Ittihad match in the Super Cup semi-finals, which Al-Nasr lost with a goal to three, that “Ronaldo will not end his career in victory, but rather he wants to return to Europe.”
He added, “Cristiano Ronaldo is a positive addition; Because it helps distract the defenders. He is one of the best players in the world.”
And Ronaldo needs to start – quickly – to make the difference in the penalty area and score the net to keep the fans on his side and not turn against him.
