Cristiano Ronaldo's Team Ends Al-Hilal's Unbeaten Run

Al Hilal's Unbeaten Streak Broken

Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr has put an end to Al Hilal's unbeaten streak, defeating the Saudi Pro League leaders 3-1 in the Saudi Super Cup semi-final on Thursday.

Al Hilal has been dominant in Saudi Arabia, winning the league and cup double last season and going unbeaten in all competitions this season until their meeting with Al Nassr.

However, Ronaldo's presence has sparked Al Nassr into life, and they produced a superb performance to defeat their rivals.

Ronaldo Scores and Assists

Ronaldo opened the scoring for Al Nassr in the 21st minute, converting a penalty after being fouled in the area.

He then turned provider for Al Nassr's second goal, setting up Anderson Talisca in the 43rd minute.

Al Hilal pulled one back through Luciano Vietto in the 64th minute, but Al Nassr sealed the victory with a late goal from Abdullah Madu in the 90th minute.

Al Nassr Marches on to the Final

The victory means that Al Nassr will now face either Al Ittihad or Al Feiha in the Saudi Super Cup final on Sunday.

Should Al Nassr win that match, it will be the first trophy of Ronaldo's time in Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo's Impact

Ronaldo's arrival in Saudi Arabia has undoubtedly had a positive impact on Al Nassr.

The team has won four of their five matches since he joined, scoring 14 goals in the process.

Ronaldo's leadership and experience have also been a major factor in Al Nassr's success.

Al Hilal's Unbeaten Streak Ends

Al Hilal's unbeaten streak was one of the most impressive in world football.

They had not lost a match in all competitions since May 2022, a run that stretched 32 games.

However, Al Nassr's victory has put an end to that streak and shown that even the most dominant teams can be beaten.
