With just two games left to end the Saudi Pro League this season, the pressure on Al Nassr is now more heavier than ever. This is the moment that separates champions from contenders. They cannot afford to let it slip away now after chasing this league title for so long.

Al Nassr sit at the top of the table with 82 points at the moment, while their biggest rivals, Al Hilal, are right behind them with 77 points with a game in hand. That five-point gap may look comfortable on paper, but in football, especially at this period of the season, nothing is guaranteed. One mistake, one bad result, one moment of carelessness can completely change the whole story.
And this is why Al Nassr must approach these remaining matches like finals. No excuses. No relaxing. No unnecessary pressure. They have to show quality, mentality, and the hunger of a team that truly wants to become champions. Winning the league is now in their hands, but football has a cruel way of punishing teams that lose focus too early.
For me, I really want to see Al Nassr lift this trophy. Not just because they have one of the biggest squads in the league, but because of the level of investment, ambition, and attention they have brought to Saudi football. From signing world-class players to building a competitive team, they have pushed themselves to this point, and it would feel incomplete if they finish this season without silverware after how close they were.
And of course, there is Cristiano Ronaldo.
Whether people love him or hate him, one thing is certain, the man lives for winning. Over the years, many critics have continued to push the narrative that Ronaldo went to Saudi Arabia only for money and that he can no longer compete at the highest level. Seeing him lead Al Nassr to a league title would silence a lot of those conversations.
This ending would feel special for me. A season full of pressure, expectations, and doubters finally ending with success and silverware. Even though football never gives anything so easily. Al Nassr still have two more battles to fight, and they must treat every minute like everything depends on it.
Because honestly, it does.
