There is no other way to say it. Al Nassr ‘ran over’ Inter Miami by a clear 6-0, in a game in which Cristiano Ronaldo was left out due to injury. Even so, the Portuguese international did not miss a ‘bit’ of the match and was always very smiling in the stands of the Kingdom Arena, the usual home of Jorge Jesus’ Al Hilal, applauding the ‘show’ that his teammates were putting on on the pitch. And this ‘show’, so to speak, started practically as soon as the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game. Even though it was a private tournament, Luís Castro’s team wanted to demonstrate their strength in the Riyadh Season Cup and they did it completely, so much so that after 12 minutes they were already winning by… 3-0. Otávio opened the scoring (3′), Talisca doubled the lead (10′) and Laporte scored a world-beating goal, scoring the third with a shot before midfield that left his teammates holding their heads… and Lionel Messi stunned on the Inter Miami bench. It should be noted that the North Americans’ eleven included names like Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets and Luís Suárez. The truth is that Al Nassr remained insatiable in the 2nd half and provided the visitors with the same dose as in the first half. Talisca scored two more and completed the hat trick and Maran scored the goal. With no Cristiano Ronaldo and taking into account the turn of events, it was expected that Lionel Messi would not even come off the bench, but Tata Martino had another idea and even introduced his compatriot in the 83rd minute. Al Nassr’s fantastic start against Inter Miami: Laporte even scored from midfield
