“Ronaldo joined the wrong team”, “CR7 effect” - Fans laugh at Cristiano Ronaldo as Al-Hilal beat Al-Nassr to clinch 19th league title

Fans on X have trolled Cristiano Ronaldo after Al-Hilal emphatically defeated Al-Hazm 4-1, beating Al-Nassr to clinch their 19th Saudi Pro League title. Ronaldo has now failed to win the league in his two seasons in Saudi Arabia, since joining Al-Nassr in January 2023.

Al-Hilal continued their reign of dominance as they defeated Al-Hazm 4-1 at home earlier today (Saturday, May 11). Aleksandar Mitrovic scored two goals (15' (P), 45+3'). Meanwhile, Ahmed Al-Juwaid scored an own goal in the 39th minute and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic (45+6') was also on target. Al-Hazm's Faiz Selemani (34') scored a consolation goal but was unable to reverse his side's fortunes.

Jorge Jesus and Co. are still unbeaten in the Saudi Pro League this season, having won 29 games and drawn two. They currently have 89 points from 31 games and have a chance of being invincibles. On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr are second with 77 points from 31 games, having won 25 games, drawn two, and lost four.
