The Saudi Pro League club ‘Al-Nassr’ hammered Major League Soccer club Inter Miami by 6-0 in the second game of the Riyadh Season Cup 2024. The Al-Nassr played the match without its star player Cristiano Ronaldo.
In the second game of the Riyadh Season Cup 2024, Saudi Pro League team Ronlado less Al-Nassr hammered Major League Soccer club Inter Miami by 6-0.
The ‘last dance’ was the moniker given to this eagerly awaited encounter between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, which was possibly their final football match.
However, Messi was benched, and Ronaldo missed the game because of a calf injury, and the Argentinian only played for the final seven minutes on Thursday night.
The Saudi team took the lead in the third minute as Otovia scored their first goal. The hat-trick hero, Talisca, took the initiative in the tenth minute. The away fans were taken aback when center-back Aymeric Laporte scored his second goal of the match after 12 minutes, making it 3-0.
At the end of the first half, the Saudi Arabian club had a 3-0 lead and was in a strong position going into the half.
The home team started the second half as strongly as they had started the first, and in the 51st minute, standout striker Talisca scored the team’s second goal of the evening to bring the total to 4-0.
Al-Nassr’s fifth goal came from Mohammed Maran, while Talisca’s hat-trick came in the 73rd minute. As a result, the scorecard at the conclusion of the match demonstrated the Saudi club’s strong aggression despite the absence of Ronaldo in the XI. Even Argentine football player Lionel Messi was taken aback by the final score and his late substitution did little to improve the spirits of the American team.
Inter Miami will depart from Saudi Arabia after losing both of the matches in the Riyadh Season Cup 2024 and conceding 10 goals, scoring just three.
Next up for Al Nassr and Al Hilal is the Riyadh Season Cup 2024 final, which is scheduled for February 8. The Riyadh Season Cup is a component of the annual Riyadh Season, a state-sponsored sports and entertainment event in Saudi Arabia.
