In the upcoming second Riyadh Season Cup 2024 pre-season friendly match, Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami is scheduled to face Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr, marking a significant reunion since the football icons left Europe for the United States of America and Saudi Arabia, respectively. The Al Nassr vs Inter Miami game will only be live-streamed through subscription on AppleTv+, while the match will not be broadcast live.
While the encounter is eagerly anticipated as a rematch between two of football’s greatest players, there’s a possibility it may become a one-sided affair. Ronaldo is currently dealing with a minor injury, and his fitness for the much-anticipated reunion with Messi remains uncertain.
The extent of Ronaldo’s injury has not been clearly defined, prompting Al-Nassr to cancel their planned friendly tour of China, disappointing fans worldwide.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, boasting a combined total of 13 Ballon d’Or titles, with Messi securing eight and Ronaldo five, have been at the forefront of football greatness.
