Al Nassr just won 8-0 against Abha in round 26 of Saudi Pro League 2023/24, especially on a day when the number 1 star Cristiano Ronaldo shined brightly with 1 hat-trick, in addition to 2 Assists help teammates score in this match.
After scoring back-to-back hat-tricks in the Saudi Pro League , the 39-year-old took to Instagram where he shared three photos from the match with the caption: “We’re not slowing down!”.
The hat-trick against Abha was the 65th time in his professional career that Ronaldo scored 3 or more goals in a match. This is also his 35th treble since turning 30, 29 times more than rival Lionel Messi since achieving this important milestone.
Cristiano Ronaldo is currently in the running for the Saudi Pro League golden boot as he has faced competition from Al Hilal striker Aleksandar Mitrovic since the beginning of this season. With the newly scored hat-trick, CR7 now has an impressive 29 goals this season, 7 goals ahead of the Al Hilal star in the race, and he also scored six goals in the AFC Champions League. .
After Al Nassr completes their match against Abha, Ronaldo and his teammates will travel to Damac on Friday, ahead of the Saudi Super Cup semi-final against opponents Al Hilal next Monday. They will be keen to claim that piece of silverware after being eliminated from the AFC Champions League by Al Ain last month.
