Cristiano Ronaldo and the pursuit of official glory
Contrary to popular belief about his individualism, Cristiano Ronaldo has recently emphasized the importance of collective work.
“I’m very happy to help the team win. The most important thing is that we won. Individual awards don’t matter,” he said after the match.
His plural approach reflects his commitment to securing an official championship with Al Nassr, something that has so far eluded him.
Although he lifted the Arab Club Champions Cup against Al Hilal, this title is not recognized by FIFA or the AFC.

To date, in the three official finals he has played with Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo has lost them all, two Saudi Super Cups against Al Hilal and Al Ahli, and the recent 2023-24 King’s Cup.
Al Hilal has become his nemesis, yet his hunger for glory remains undiminished. Each defeat only fuels his determination to bring Al Nassr to the top in a recognized competition.
Cristiano Ronaldo and the historic 1,000-goal milestone
While chasing collective glory, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to write his personal history.
With 107 goals in 114 matches for Al Nassr and 952 in his professional career, he is approaching the magical milestone of 1,000 goals. Maintaining his current form and pace, surpassing this landmark seems highly achievable.
The combination of his on-field leadership and scoring ability makes every match an opportunity to add another chapter to his legend.
Cristiano Ronaldo is not just chasing individual records; his focus is on securing an official title to end Al Nassr’s drought while continuing to elevate his legacy in world football.
