On November 7, thousands of supporters braved inclement weather and lengthy lines to purchase tickets for the AFC Champions League match between Al Nassr of Saudi Arabia and Al Duhail of Qatar.
The main cause of the excitement was the presence of Cristiano Ronaldo, a Portuguese international who is regarded by many as one of the world’s best players.
Fans, it appears, will not be happy with this, as rumors have surfaced indicating that Ronaldo and five other players have been rested for the match against Duhail.
According to reports, Nassr, who leads Group E with nine points from three games, has chosen to rest Ronaldo out of concern for an injury. Earlier today, the team reached Doha.
However, a source close to Al Nassr claims in the most recent update of The Nassr Zone that Cristiano Ronaldo injured his ankle in the game against Al Khaleej last weekend, and things appear worse than they were. with medical professionals and Ronaldo’s forecasts.
Coach Luis Castro chose to rest the Portuguese superstar during the match against Al Duhail rather than risk aggravating the injury that CR7 had sustained. Senegal striker Sadio Mane was the player selected to replace CR7.
Aymeric Laporte’s services will also not be available to Al Nassr during this trip. The Spanish midfielder, who also sustained a minor injury, will be rested; Abdullah Madu has been named as his replacement.
