Match Today: Al Nassr - Al Hilal vs Paris Saint-Germain 19-01-2023 Riyadh Season Cup 2023

The Lionel Messi vs Cristiano Ronaldo match is scheduled to take place when the Saudi All-Star team plays Paris Saint-Germain in an exhibition match and a team from Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal will compete vs the Paris Saint-Germain team.

The stadium will be full of spectators eager to see Ronaldo and Messi face off in a friendly match. Despite signing the contract in December, Ronaldo will make his debut with the Saudi club as captain of the team.

Although it will be played in the form of a friendly match, Paris Saint-Germain will undoubtedly have the 2022 World Cup champions on the field and Christophe Galtier will certainly use this match to boost the team’s confidence after losing 1-0 vs Rennes. The obvious confrontation between Messi and Ronaldo was the Golden Ball that Argentina have won it seven times to the Portuguese's five. Messi could add to his collection after winning in Qatar, but there is less confidence that Ronaldo will extend his collection beyond the five he already has.

It is probably safe to say that Messi has won this, August 2011 Barcelona beat Real 3-2 in the second leg of the Spanish Super Cup Messi scored twice and Ronaldo once was not the most important match but El Clásico is still a Clasico and it heralded the exponential growth of their rivals over the world arena.

Saudi fans are hoping to see their eagerly awaited superstar play for the first time since his signing in December. Ronaldo has not played since the World Cup so there will be a great deal of support for the player who will light up the game with his qualities.

While there will be different sections of fans who will support the Argentinian, Messi will be ready to amaze his fans with his charm after leading his country to victory in the World Cup. Messi's next task will be to lead the team to their first victory in the Champions League.

Ronaldo and another Manchester United star, Odion Ighalo, will also be in attendance. The All-Star Game will start Salem Al-Dosari, who scored vs Argentina during the World Cup, while former Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina has been ruled out with an elbow injury. Galtier is unlikely to play with Presnel Kimpembe, Marco Verratti and Nuno. Mendes and Peter Sarabia to avoid risking the rest will undoubtedly be included in this friendly.

Messi plays for Paris Saint-Germain, who will go to Saudi Arabia as part of his latest winter tour. Cristiano Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr recently and they are one of the two Saudi teams that will make the All-Star Team.

This will not be considered the first appearance of the Portuguese star for his new club, because he does not play strictly with Al-Nassr, and guest coach Marcelo Gallardo will coach the star team, not Al-Nasr coach Rudi Garcia.

This match was originally supposed to take place in early 2022 but PSG's tour was postponed due to COVID-19 concerns. At the time, Messi played for PSG, but Ronaldo was still in Europe with Manchester United.

However, the contracts signed for this round remained valid, which is why Paris Saint-Germain was forced to return as part of his recent visit to Qatar, which has since hosted the FIFA World Cup, which Messi won with Argentina.
