Background info: Al Nassr is a soccer or better known as a football team in Saudi Arabia, it is known for having one of the best players in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo (CR7). It is 2nd in the Saudi Pro League to Al Hilal. The team has one 28 trophies, eighteen Pro League titles, six King Cups, three Crown Prince’s Cups, three Federation Cups, and two Super Cups. The team is extremely skilled and with Ronaldo leaving Portugal’s team in 2022 after the World Cup, they have gotten even better.

On February 1st they will be versus Inter Miami and on February 8th they will be versus Al Hilal. The match against Al Hilal will be important since Al Nassr is second place to Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League. The matches against Shanghai and Zhejiang got postponed due to an injury that Ronaldo got and new dates will be announced soon.
Quote 1: A quote that I like is by Ronaldo which is “Talent without working hard is nothing”. The reason why this quote is amazing is because it can be applied to anything, not just soccer. For the majority of the world, this quote is for academics. Many people are smart but cannot put the hard work in.
Quote 2: Another quote by a famous soccer player is Pelé. He was a famous Brazilian soccer player and was the only soccer player to win 3 FIFA World Cups. He sadly died December 29 2022 at the age of 82. However, his quote still goes on, “Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.”
