Eager to achieve further personal milestones, the former Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus ace is determined to secure another trophy for his collection since making the move to Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo's Al-Nassr face daunting Super Cup test

However, he faces a formidable challenge in guiding Al-Nassr past their fierce rivals, Al-Hilal, who have displayed unstoppable form this campaign, maintaining an extraordinary 40-game unbeaten streak, including an impressive 32-game winning streak, per One Football.

Despite the daunting task ahead, Cristiano finds comfort in the memory of inspiring Al-Nassr to victory against the same opponents last summer in the final of the Arab Champions Cup, as noted by Reuters.

During that memorable encounter, the 39-year-old delivered a stellar performance, scoring twice—once to level the game and another to seal a dramatic comeback victory in extra time.

Since Ronaldo's pivotal contributions in that match, leading to Al-Hilal's defeat, the Blue Waves have remained undefeated.
