Ronaldo and his brother share a close bond. It was the soccer icon who helped his only male sibling overcome alcohol and drugs. The ceremony took place on Madeira, a volcanic island in Portugal, where Ronaldo grew up. However, he did not witness the occasion live to see his sibling take the vow again. Meanwhile, the striker’s decision to stay in Riyadh certainly helped his club, Al Nassr.

Ronaldo’s sacrifice pays off

The Al Nassr star chose to stay back because of his Saudi Pro League match against Al Khaleej on Saturday. As a result, his sacrifice was rewarded, and Al Nassr won the game 2-0 thanks to a screamer from the man himself, which he dedicated to his partner. Ronaldo was pivotal for the win with his goal and an assist.

Al Nassr has begun to rise in the Saudi Pro League. Placed second on the table behind Al Hilal, Ronaldo’s exemplary season is keeping his team in contention for the title this year. The Knights of Najd will take on Al Duhail in the second leg of the group stage of the AFC Champions League.
