In the Saudi club semi-final, Portuguese star forward Cristiano Ronaldo once more demonstrated his exceptional play, stoking the greatest of all time (GOAT) discussion to his benefit.
Ronaldo compared to ‘excellent wine’ that improves with age
After leading his team to a 3-1 victory, the 39-year-old striker celebrated by posting a joyful message to his fans on social media. First and third goals were scored by Cristiano Ronaldo; Senegal international Sadio Mane scored the second goal from the penalty spot at Al-Awwal Park Stadium in Riyadh.
“The King’s Cup … let’s go,” the Portuguese forward said in a quick message on X, the old Twitter.
Al Nassr will now play their bitter rival Al-Hilal in the championship match on May 31. Pictures of his joy following his two goals were included with the message. This season, the two arch rivals would square off five times.
After Ronaldo’s win, Tribuna reports that his supporters dubbed him GOAT versus Lionel Messi of Inter Miami. One said: “His bicycle kick is the only goal that comes close to this. It appears that Cristiano Ronaldo never ages.”
A Liverpool supporter said, “One of this generation’s finest finishers. The goat.
“Messi could never?” one commented, “This is Unbelievable Cristiano ❤️?” another said.
“The older the better,” a social media user said, drawing a comparison between him and good wine.What goat?
