Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

Al Hilal won and were crowned champions. Al Hilal defeated their rival team Al Nasr, which is very sad for Al Nasr. Because the process of Al Nasr losing to Al Hilal was very easy. They defeated Al Hilal very easily. Ronaldo broke down in tears after the penalty shootout. Because Ronaldo knew that his teammates would disappoint him.

Yes, they had to accept defeat again from Al Hilal in the final match which was actually the last chance for them to win at least one title, but they failed to do so. They lost on penalties and that must have hurt a lot. We can see how Al Hilal's toughness has not been able to be resisted by Al Nassr this season and Al Hilal has become champion again and at the same time ensures that Al Nassr ends the season without a title this season.

Al Nassr must be able to improve next season, Al Hilal is still too tough for them. They must evaluate their failures this season and prepare their strength to navigate the next season. I think they will be able to do it, especially as they have the potential to be able to do all of that. What is clear is that now they have to take a break and forget about what happened to them this season. They must focus on preparing the team for the next season.

Once again Al Hilal won against Al Nassr on King's Cup final match, Al Nassr disadvantage last night after their goals keeper David Ospine received direct red card on 56th. Ayman Yahha helped Al Nassr by scoring goal before few minutes match ended but got loss from penalty kick. I watched highlight and looking how emotional with Cristiano Ronaldo after another failure for winning King's Cup.

Season 2023/24 have been over with Al Nassr not winning any tittle yet, difference with the rival teams Al Hilal success get treble winner in this season after winning domestic league, Saudi Super Cup until King's Cup trophies and make them dominance for this season all competition.
Al Nassr must improving their performance for next season get opportunity for winning domestic league tittle by signing some top player, its not difficult with financial support for signing top European players.

Al Nassr are weaker than Al Hilal and this season, through many matches directly between two clubs and with other clubs, show this fact. Sometimes difference is slim but most of times, differences between them are big.

Cristiano Ronaldo actually is ambitious and never want to lose a match or a title so this result is hardly accepted by him. He takes big risk by playing this match because Euro 2024 is around the air and any injury will put him at risk of missing the tournament.

Al Nassr must improving their performance for next season get opportunity for winning domestic league tittle by signing some top player, its not difficult with financial support for signing top European players.

Improving defense system will be biggest task for Al Nassr in the summer because in attacking, they are not bad but in defense, they got too many conceded goals even when playing with weak teams in Saudi Professional League. They lost many points to weak or average clubs in Saudi Professional League and when Al Hilal dominate the league, these conceded goals and lost points make big difference in the title competition.

The King's Cup final between Al Hilal and Al Nassr went to penalties and it was not easy for Al Hilal to win the match. Mitrovic gave Al Hilal the lead in the 7th minute, but Al Nassr struggled to win the match despite being down to 10 men.David Ospina received a red card in the 56th minute, leaving his team down to 10 men.Despite this, Al Nassr managed to hold on to the match and managed to take the match to extra time with a goal in the last minutes.Despite playing with one man less in extra time, Al Nassr failed to make the most of their chances, taking the match to penalties.

They defeated Al Hilal very easily. Ronaldo broke down in tears after the penalty shootout. Because Ronaldo knew that his teammates would disappoint him.

Al Hilal has been more determined than Al Nassr this season because after going down to 9 men to Al Nassr 10 men still they were able to hold Al Nassr to a draw and took the game to extra time. This is not the first time Al Hilal has won Al Nassr or taken a trophy from them. They did it in the league and has also taken the King cup of champions trophy from them. They are a better team than Al Nassr and they deserve to win the league title and the kings of cup trophy. Al Nassr need to improve on their squad because they do not have a good squad, they only have Ronaldo that can change the direction of the game for them and he can not do that every time. They need someone to assist him so they can win trophy for the club and they also need to work on their defense because they are defending very poorly.

It happened again and for the umpteenth time Al-Nassr failed to win against Al-Hilal. This is the final match of the Kings Cup and last season if I'm not mistaken Al-Nassr were the winners. I think this season is very unlucky for Al-Nassr because they always lose against Al-Hilal and I think things will continue even in the Saudi league if they don't immediately look for Al-Hilal's weaknesses.

This match also had to be resolved through a penalty shootout and Al-Hilal did have a better goalkeeper, namely Bounou, and everyone knows he was an extraordinary goalkeeper in the 2022 World Cup and took Morocco to the quarter-finals. It was also seen that Ronaldo immediately burst into tears on the field after losing in the penalty shootout and indeed he had to feel everything considering that this season Al-Nassr did not win anything with him.

They defeated Al Hilal very easily. Ronaldo broke down in tears after the penalty shootout. Because Ronaldo knew that his teammates would disappoint him.

Al Nassr players are unserious players, they don’t know what is called winning, I know that Al Hilal is better than them but Al Nassr players don’t know how to play football, imagine common a penalty shootout Al Nassr players don’t know how to play, Al Nassr have many opportunities to win in the match when playing the penalty and they miss it, I have already said it from the beginning that Al Nassr doesn’t have a good players that will help Ronaldo, Al Nassr players don’t know how to play football, most especially the defensive players, they don’t know how to defend to stop their opponents to score a goal and that is why they always struggle to win a match, I don’t even know if Ronaldo is not in the team the position they are going to be this season.

The only thing that will make Al Nassr win a trophy next season is for the team to go and sign new players, sell out some of the players in the team and go to the premier league, Laliga league and other leagues to get good players that will help them, many players are going to be out of contract in many leagues, Al Nassr should go and buy those players because those their Saudi players don’t know how to play football, Al Hilal have many players that come from outside Saudi that is why they are performing very good.

I agree, and I think most of the players in Al Nassr are not really trying hard like Ronaldo and it seems they don't take it seriously that's why they lose these important games. In fact, we know Al Nassr has many superstar players like Ronaldo and Mane in their team but they don't try hard and this is what made Al Nassr to lose. You saw in the game against Al Hilal that when the game had just started, Al Nassr was shocked, and they were about to lose the game with a 1-0 result against Al Hilal.
However, losing this game in the penalty kicks was mostly because of the better performance of the goalkeeper Al Hilal Yassine Bounou which made Ronaldo start crying.

With this Al-Hilal win yesterday In the final of the Saudi Kings Cup, you will be able to understand the difference between these two teams in performance level and understand that Al-Nassr still have a lot to do. Yes Al-Nassr were very prepared for the game but I think their performance level wasn’t top like a team that are well prepared for the game and leat they lost the trophy.

 Al-Nassr lacks serious players that are dedicated and you can see that in the team’s performance especially in the penalty shootout as they weren’t real motivated to win. Unlike Ronaldo, they are not serious and especially the defenders who missed most of the penalties yesterday and even let Al-Hilal take the lead. This is a big indication of the things that the club need to take into consideration before the new season starts.

 A total clean up needs to be done in the squad and injection of new players who are very well determined will be of great help for the club especially next season as they move to challenge for the league title. There are good players especially across Europe who are free agents and will appreciate a move to play in same team with Ronaldo. Good finance will be a great way to start up for them and I think them also getting players who are hungry for success will be efficient in their run to winning the league next season.

I saw Ronaldo crying after losing the trophy.A short video was shared on social media and I honestly don't think he was happy.He must be upset that he doesn't have any more trophies, even in such a simple league.Ronaldo showed that he chose money by coming here, but he might have the chance to turn it around. If Jose Mourinho calls him and he wants to come to Fenerbahce, he will have the chance to close the year with at least a trophy, maybe the last time he will have the chance to play in the Champions League, it will be a different experience for Fenerbahce and its fans.

It seems that Ronaldo experienced considerable disappointment after he was unable to help Al Nassr win any trophies this season, Ronaldo and Al Nassr hopes have certainly vanished after they suffered a painful defeat in the final round of the King of Saudi Arabia, I think it is quite natural that Ronaldo cried because indeed all his struggles in the match were in vain after they had to stop in the penalty shootout,  The defeat to Al Hillal certainly made Al Nassr still unable to break Al Hillal dominance so far over them, Ronaldo this season actually expected a lot from Al Nassr but instead many of their players who performed not optimally in the match including Ospina who I thought acted stupidly until finally had to be removed from the match.

At the moment al nassr have lost all trophy opportunities this season and of course it is quite surprising for us if with the current squad they have failed to get any trophies this season, the SPL has ended and of course it is quite painful for a player who managed to reach the top scorer but instead failed to bring his team to end the season with the current championship trophy,  I think next season Al Nassr should be able to improve their squad to be able to compete for trophies, but if not, of course, most likely Ronaldo will prefer to leave for another club.

They defeated Al Hilal very easily. Ronaldo broke down in tears after the penalty shootout. Because Ronaldo knew that his teammates would disappoint him.

This whole "Al Nassr lost easily" narrative is fake news! The game went to penalties, for crying out loud! Thats as close as it gets. Sure, Al Nassr missed their chances, but who doesnt in a risky shootout? These guys are professionals, some of the best in the world. They know how to play the game. Blaming them for the loss is just plain wrong.

Look at Ronaldo. The guy's a winner. He hates losing more than anyone. Those tears? Thats passion. Thats heart. Thats what makes him a champion. Maybe Al Nassr needs to make some changes, but dont count them out. They've got talent, they've got grit, and they'll be back. Believe me.

Al Hilal was really wild, they even managed to score a quick goal in the 7th minute through Mitrovic. Cristiano Ronaldo in this match didn't manage to score a goal before the penalty round occurred, this pressure must have made Cristiano cry a lot, he was sad because he couldn't bring Al Nassr. won the King Cup and SPL, Al Hilal is indeed a tough team in the SPL at the moment, it's hard to beat them, in the next season it will most likely be the same.

Al Nassr was lucky to make it to the penalty shootout. It was heartbreaking to see Ronaldo crying. Football means a lot to him. He scored his penalty, but he can't take everyone's. Imagine if all the players put in as much effort as he does. He tried his best, but maybe Al Nassr needs some changes. He's sad to play with such a weak squad. The team's depth is laughable. Hopefully, next season Al Nassr will improve and make a strong comeback.

It is obvious that Al Hilaal is superiors to Al Nassr because they have defeated them beyond reasonable doubt this season. The last time they met, Al Nassr had the opportunity of leading them by a lone goal up to dying minutes of the match but as fate might have it, Al Hilaal equalized. From that day I gave up the hope of Al Nassr getting a win over Al Hilaal.

If this match end this way, it means that Cristiano Ronaldo will be ending this season winning nothing. Indeed I never thought that the duo of Sadio Mane and Cristiano Ronaldo will not be enough to snatch any of the trophy from Al Hilaal.

Yes, the match ended with a penalty shootout, and Al-Hilal eventually clinched the King's Cup this season. As I mentioned earlier, Bounou was the standout goalkeeper, managing to anticipate almost all of Al-Nassr's shots despite failing to save some. Al-Nassr players couldn't capitalize on their chances effectively. It seems Ronaldo might be feeling disappointed, or perhaps he feels like he failed to deliver the trophy to Al-Nassr this season.

Sadio Mane hasn't been at his best for Al-Nassr this season, both in the Pro League and in other matches. He hasn't shown the same level of aggression as he did at Liverpool previously. The duel between Sadio Mane and Ronaldo didn't provide anything surprising, in fact, Ronaldo performed better when playing alongside Talisca.

We have this match really at his best while Al Nassr having equalizer in 88th minute things were looking favorable for them with I was personally feeling most chances we will have won for them in this final game of the season and Ronaldo will be having another trophy into his wallet, but sadly things were not ideal for their win, and they lost another final against their rivals on penalty shootouts which is heartbroken for them and their fans as well.

Al Nassr is having defensive issues from the start of the season with things were never been ideal now after this disappointing season they need to be had some good changes which improve their defense, and they could be able to have better results with now we will have good improvement in quality as well because things are looking good for few other teams to have better performance in this season and try to have better spots as well.

I agree with you, that Al Nassr's defeat in this match did not happen easily, because they had to lose through the penalty shootout round, which is actually a round of luck in my opinion. If they fail to win any title this season, they have to admit that Al Hilal is indeed better than them this season.
A disappointing season for Ronaldo, because no matter how hard he tries, he can't get what he wants this season. His ambition to win a title is very high, so it's natural for him to cry because he has to accept the fact that he really failed this season.
Indeed, even before the match started, Al Hilal believed they would be able to win, because in the last few meetings this season, they were almost always ahead of Al Nassr. And they proved it again in this match where they beat AL Nassr again. Even though they struggled a lot, they managed to become champions again.

Al Hilal was too tough for all its competitors at domestic level, they managed to sweep all the matches and bring home all the trophies, this was a very extraordinary season for Al Hilal. The match ended as predicted, where Al Hilal was very lucky to beat Al Nassr in the penalty shootout round, Al Hilal really refused to accept defeat at domestic level.

For Al Nassr, this defeat should be a valuable experience, that they must build a better squad next season around Ronaldo. It was very disappointing when you lost in the final, your only hope of winning a trophy failed to come true. Ronaldo will reportedly stay next season, this is the best opportunity for Al Nassr before the superstar retires.

I think not only Ronaldo, everyone at the Al Nassr club feels sadness due to their failure, but they have to forget it and look at next season with optimism. Ronaldo's influence is an opportunity for Al Nassr to recruit former top European players, and I think Al Nassr defense is the main thing that must be improved next season.

I believe next season will be different and we might see a lot of transfers especially in the Al-Nassr squad to improve the team, especially the defence line where we can see easily the difference between it and Al-Hilal. The number of received goals is almost twice as higher in the Al-Nassr side.
Cristiano Ronaldo hope were big in the beginning of the season and the team was lucky to find the second place again and finish behind Al-Hilal.

Cristiano Ronaldo hope were big in the beginning of the season and the team was lucky to find the second place again and finish behind Al-Hilal.

Even if Al Nassr needs to build their defense, I think they don't need to buy many defenders. 3 defenders is enough to strengthen their defense line. Aymeric Laporte and Alex Telles have performed quite well, they only need 1 centre-back and 1 right-back. 1 defender may be for the substitution if there is a defender who can't play well. Another line should be improve is midfield line, they need 1-2 central midfielder. For the attacking line, I think Al Nassr has enough player (Ronaldo, Talisca, Mane). If they want a new attacker, 1 attacker is enough. But I really expect that Al Nassr will buy younger players this time. They already have too many old players in their squad. It really bring influence for the team.

The new coach is also important. I'm not sure if they can play better of they only keep the current coach. The current coach can't make Al Nassr stronger, the new coach is needed for the next season.

We have many available coaches with free agent status.

You are right they needed few changes, but these are only in defense as things are not favorable for them here, and they are facing problems which are needed to be fixed before next season if they want to win trophies even I have strong feeling things could be not easy for them to compete with Al Hilal which is having good team, and they are surely going to be stayed out of the transfer window as things are competitive for them, but we are going for the few changes into Al Ahli and Al Ittihad as well with both are needed improvement and Al Nassr which is also having problem with coach if they will bring any better than it's could be bonus for them and their success.

Defense is the weakness side of Al Nassr performed in this season after conceded 42 goals although success scoring 100 goals of 34 matches in domestic league. I think Al Nassr have make transfer for defense position from central defender until holding midfielder will make Al Nassr get better performance next season by making many clean sheet for every match. For this season over and Saudi Pro League official not announce yet when the season 2024/25 will begin.
I think some top Saudi Pro League teams will make huge transfer and more bigger than last season, interested to see all star of European players moving to Saudi Pro League and make more competitive. For Al Nassr, they must sign top European defender and looking the opportunity which players has bigger chance want to play in Saudi Arabia.
