CRISTIANO RONALDO FACES FRESH SETBACK AS AL-NASSR LOSE SAUDI SUPER CUP FINAL

Cristiano Ronaldo’s pursuit of silverware with Al-Nassr suffered another setback as the Saudi giants fell short in the Saudi Super Cup Final against Al-Ahli. The highly anticipated clash ended 2–2 in regular time, but Al-Nassr lost on penalties, leaving Ronaldo without the trophy he and his teammates had hoped to lift.

Since joining Al-Nassr, Ronaldo has brought global attention to Saudi football, boosting viewership and fan engagement across the region. However, his journey has not been without frustration. Despite his consistent scoring and leadership on the pitch, Al-Nassr has struggled to convert strong performances into major titles.

This latest disappointment is particularly stinging as rivals continue to grow stronger in the Saudi Pro League. For Ronaldo, widely regarded as one of football’s greatest, the hunger for trophies remains undiminished, and every missed opportunity is magnified by his legendary status.

Nevertheless, Ronaldo’s impact cannot be understated. His presence has raised the competitive level of the league, inspired young players, and placed Saudi Arabian football firmly on the global stage. While the Super Cup loss is a setback, fans remain hopeful that with Ronaldo’s determination, Al-Nassr will bounce back stronger in upcoming competitions.

At 40, Ronaldo continues to defy age with his performances, proving that his drive for success remains as fierce as ever. Though silverware has eluded him so far at Al-Nassr, the season is still alive with opportunities—and if history has taught us anything, it’s that Cristiano Ronaldo never stays down for long.

ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR – OCTOBER 14, 2025. Madagascar has been plunged into deep political and military turmoil as President Andry Rajoelina dissolved the lower house of parliament following a series of dramatic events that have shaken the island nation. The move comes amid mounting protests, divisions within the armed forces, and reports that the President fled the country fearing for his life.

TRUMP DEPLOYS NATIONAL GUARD TO CHICAGO AMID RISING UNREST

TRUMP DEPLOYS NATIONAL GUARD TO CHICAGO AMID RISING UNREST In a move that has sparked widespread debate across the United States, President Donald Trump has authorized the deployment of 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. The decision, according to the White House, comes in response to a series of violent protests, vandalism, and reported lawlessness that have gripped parts of the city in recent weeks. Administration officials say the deployment is aimed at restoring peace and protecting federal buildings, businesses, and citizens, but critics argue it marks another instance of federal overreach and political showmanship. The announcement was made late Saturday following a high-level security briefing at the White House. In his statement, Trump emphasized that the federal government “would not sit idly by while chaos and violence undermine public safety.” The president pointed to reports of shootings, looting, and clashes between demonstrators and police as justification ...
