Ronaldo’s Saudi club Al-Nassr drawn to travel to India for Asian Champions League clash with FC Goa
Cristiano Ronaldo will travel to India to face FC Goa in an Asian Champions League Two match being hailed as “historic” in the country.
Al-Nassr of Saudi Arabia and their superstars were drawn on Friday against the Indian Super League (ISL) club in Group D of Asia’s second-tier club competition, along with Istiklol of Tajikistan and Iraq’s Al-Zawraa.
The top two from each of the eight groups advance to the second round.
“This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment for FC Goa,” club CEO Ravi Puskur said. “To host Al-Nassr and Cristiano Ronaldo is arguably the biggest game in Indian club football history.”
