However, this isn’t The Undertaker’s first visit to Saudi Arabia. The country has been hosting WWE events since 2018, and The Undertaker had been here before as well. Although the 58-year-old wrestler retired from WWE in 2020.

Speaking of the Riyadh Season Cup game, Al Nassr suffered a 2-0 defeat against their arch-rival Al Hilal. Cristiano Ronaldo made his return through this match after missing Al Nassr’s previous game against Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami. In that encounter, Al Nassr thrashed the Miami-based club by 6-0.

However, Ronaldo’s side remained goalless in the decisive game. Despite Ronaldo’s presence on the field for the full 90 minutes, they couldn’t find the back of the net. With this victory, Al Hilal clinched the Riyadh Season Cup 2024.
