Ronaldo misses the Asian Champions League match
"Al-Nasr" team head coach Jorge Jesus explained why Cristiano Ronaldo will miss the upcoming match. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
This was reported by *euro-football.ru*. The Riyadh club will play against the "Arkadag" team on Wednesday as part of the Asian Champions League.
Although the Portuguese forward is expected to return to the team soon, he will not be included in the lineup this time either. According to coach Jorge Jesus, the coaching staff decided to rest Ronaldo and several other key players considering the tight match schedule.
The reason is the important upcoming Saudi league match against "Al-Fateh". The "Al Nassr Zone" source quoted the coach saying: "Ronaldo resting is not new.
It is not the first time he has missed matches held outside Saudi Arabia," said Jesus. The Saudi Pro League match between "Al-Fateh" and "Al-Nasr" is scheduled for Saturday, February 14.
