Saudi Arabia Pro League, Riyadh Crescent won the title early with a 31-game unbeaten streak in the whole season, and the heavily acquired star Neymar (Neymar) is still celebrating although he has been injured for most of the time after joining; Cristiano Ronaldo's Riyadh Victory was once again runner-up, but the 39-year-old's performance was unquestionable.
After 31 rounds of matches in the Saudi league, Riyadh Crescent, the top of the table, has opened the second place Riyadh Victory with 12 points, and locked the league title three rounds early, which is the 19th time that the giant has won the league and continues to extend this record. The biggest name in the Riyadh Crescent team must be the Brazilian star Neymar, who transferred from Paris Saint-Germain for 90 million euros in August last year, but Neymar was injured as soon as he joined, and after four games, he was finally able to play, and then played two starts, one substitute, and a total of three assists.
It's just that Neymar wore the Riyadh Crescent jersey for only 3 games, went to the international competition, and suffered a heavy cruciate ligament injury in the match against Uruguay, and has been suspended until now. But he still watched the Riyadh Crescent in person, and this match was no exception, taking to the pitch to celebrate after the game.
Although Neymar has only played three games since his arrival, there are still a number of lesser-known and still strong players in the Riyadh Crescent team, including striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, who played for Fulham in the Premier League, who has been quite efficient, scoring 26 goals in 25 games, and Kalidou Koulibaly, a centre-back who has played for Napoli and Chelsea. Both are the focus of Riyadh Crescent's title this season. However, Aleksandar Mitrovic did not rank at the top of the scorer list, and the first place is still occupied by the 39-year-old Ronaldo.
Cristiano Ronaldo's Riyadh Victory once again lost the league title, but personally, the numbers are quite impressive, and he has not only scored 33 goals but also 10 assists in 28 appearances this season; He also scored six goals and one assist in eight games in the AFC Champions League, and scored 42 goals in 41 games in all competitions this season, which is quite efficient; Not only have he been injured in his two seasons, he has scored 62 goals in 66 appearances.
It's a pity that after Ronaldo joined in the last two seasons, Riyadh Victory was the runner-up in the league, although there are stars such as Mane and Laporte this season, they still stopped in the top 8 of the AFC Champions League.
