On Thursday, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were supposed to meet in a 'final showdown', but that will not be the case. The Portuguese will miss the match due to injury.
Al-Nasr coach Luis Castro confirms this to Argentine Ole.
Against the rumours: – Very upset
– Cristiano Ronaldo is in the final stages of training to join the team. Castro said: We will see in the coming days whether he can resume training with the team again, but he will miss the match.
What might be the last game ever between the Giants was planned. But the training match between Al-Nasr, led by Ronaldo, and Inter Miami, led by Messi, will be without the Portuguese legend.
The match will be held in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, on Thursday.
The duo have been rivals throughout their careers. Especially through the matches between the traditional rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid. Where Messi and Ronaldo were respectively the big stars of each team.
