Top 20 Roshen: Ronaldo takes Tony’s place… and Mané joins Kinyonis | OneFootball

Koora reports that Cristiano Ronaldo returned from injury to captain Al-Nassr and was named Player of the Round on Matchday 27, moving top of its Top 20 ranking on 21 points alongside Ivan Toney.

Al-Nassr beat Al-Najma 5-2. Al-Hilal were held 2-2 by Al-Taawoun, Al-Ahli defeated Damac 3-0, Al-Ittihad edged Al-Hazm 1-0, and Al-Qadisiyah lost 3-2 to Al-Ittifaq.

Ronaldo scored twice and impressed with intelligent movement in the area, sharp reading of play and smart use of space. He unsettled the defence and created openings for team-mates, leading the line with a constant threat on and off the ball.

The display coincided with his 100th Roshen League appearance, a run in which he has scored 97 goals.

The season-long list allocates one point for a team-of-the-round pick and three for the standout performer. Now in its second year after Salem Al-Dossari won the first, the table shows João Félix on 18, Karim Benzema on 15, Sadio Mané and Ruben Neves on 12, Julian Kenyonis on 11, and Theo Hernández and Riyad Mahrez on 10.
