In the early hours of December 9, Riyadh's victory team and Riyadh sports team competed fiercely in the same city derby. In the last AFC Champions League, Cristiano Ronaldo was in great form after resting, and he showed an excellent performance in the game, successfully passing the ball and making contributions, becoming a well-deserved focus figure. Despite Cristiano Ronaldo's excellent performance, former Chinese Super League foreign player Talisca's whistle-blowing goal became the turning point in the final moments. With the excellent performance of Cristiano Ronaldo and Talisca, Riyadh's victory team defeated city rivals Riyadh Sports with a score of 4-1, ending the previous decline.
In the 31st minute, Riyadh's victorious team attacked from the left, Mane's 45-degree cross found Cristiano Ronaldo, who scrambled to score to make it 1-0. In the third minute of first-half stoppage time, Cristiano Ronaldo made a series of dribbles in the opponent's penalty area and passed, and Otavio jumped up to score again to help his team score again. At the start of the second half, Riyadh's victorious side extended the score to 3-0 in the 67th minute, when Sadio Mane sent a low ball and Talisca easily pushed it into the score.
However, Riyadh Sporting responded quickly after just a minute when Juan Miguel passed the ball and Gray scored it one-on-one. In the end, in stoppage time, Talisca scored with a header to complete his personal double and finally set the score at 4-1. Cristiano Ronaldo was in great physical shape after a break. In addition to his passing and shooting, he also threatened on a number of occasions, such as a powerful shot in the first 12 minutes of the game that was blocked by Riyadh Sporting player Birama Toure with his arm on the goal line.
However, the referee did not award a penalty, although after the VAR replay, it was clear that Birama Toure's arms were not close to him, and his outstretched arms widened his defensive range to block Cristiano Ronaldo's goal directly. Towards the end of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo's shots were still full of desire, such as in the 85th minute, when his inverted cross from the left went just wide of the post. Overall, Cristiano Ronaldo showed a lot of energy in this game and caused a lot of trouble for Riyadh Sporting. His performance is undoubtedly impressive.
It is worth mentioning that Ronaldo's excellent performance has become one of the keys to the team's victory, and it has also brought great joy to the fans.
