Al-Nassr coach Jorge Jesus spoke about Cristiano Ronaldo's condition after a 3-1 victory over Al-Fayha in the 24th round of the Saudi Pro League. The experienced specialist commented on the striker's substitution due to injury.
Idman.Biz, citing A Bola, reports that Jesus emphasized that he took this step to protect the star football player.
"He felt muscle pain. After we scored the second goal, I didn't want to take any risks and replaced him. The medical department will, of course, assess his condition, but he was just feeling muscle fatigue. My job as a coach is to accurately understand the details of the game and make changes at the right time. But for this, we also need players who can decide the fate of the game," said the head coach.
It should be noted that Cristiano Ronaldo, who failed to accurately convert a penalty in the 11th minute of the match, had to leave the field in the 81st minute due to a problem with his right leg.
In the current season, Ronaldo has played 26 games for Al-Nassr in all tournaments, scoring 22 goals and providing 4 assists.
