Not even Ronaldo could avoid it! Al Hilal are the new champions of Riyadh Cup

It was the most anticipated match of the week in Asia, more specifically in Saudi Arabia. Al Nassr faced Al Hilal in the final of the Riyadh Season tournament, which, although friendly, caught the attention of the entire world by having Lionel Messi's Inter Miami, who was eliminated early.

Al Nassr and his fans came to the game with great expectations, because among other things, it was also about Cristiano Ronaldo's return to the playing fields, 40 days later. The Portuguese had not been able to play in all of 2024 due to a muscle injury, in fact, that is why he did not play in the friendlies in China or against Inter Miami either.

Despite the presence of the Portuguese, Al Hilal dominated the final from start to finish. With goals from Sergej Milinković-Savić and then one from Salem Al-Dawsari, Al Hilal were crowned champions of the Riyadh Season with a score of 2-0. On top of it, it could have ended 3-0, but Mitrovic's goal, the team's star, was disallowed for offside.
