Al Hilal Extends Lead Over Ronaldo - Mitrovic Surpasses Cristiano and Benzema in Scoring Race

Saudi Arabian Club Extends Advantage

Al Hilal, the Saudi Arabian club that recently acquired Cristiano Ronaldo, has extended its lead at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings. After a 2-1 victory over Al Fateh, Al Hilal now holds a four-point advantage over second-placed Al Nassr, where Ronaldo plays.

Mitrovic's Impressive Haul

In other news, Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has surpassed both Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema in the race for the European Golden Shoe. The Serbian international has scored 11 goals in 17 Premier League appearances this season, while Ronaldo has netted five times in ten games for Al Nassr and Benzema has scored nine goals in 12 La Liga matches for Real Madrid.

Ronaldo's Struggles Continue

Ronaldo's struggles in front of goal have continued since joining Al Nassr. The Portuguese superstar has failed to score in his last four appearances for the Saudi Arabian club, and his overall tally for the season remains at five goals in 14 games.

Benzema's Injury Woes

Benzema's pursuit of the European Golden Shoe has been hindered by injuries. The French striker has missed several games for Real Madrid this season due to muscle problems, and his return to action has been delayed by a fresh injury setback.

Mitrovic's Impressive Form

Mitrovic, on the other hand, has been in impressive form for Fulham this season. The 28-year-old has scored in each of his last three Premier League appearances, and he is currently the joint-top scorer in the league alongside Erling Haaland of Manchester City.

Conclusion

Al Hilal's continued dominance in the Saudi Pro League and Mitrovic's impressive scoring form are two of the key storylines to emerge from the latest round of action in world football. Ronaldo's struggles in front of goal have raised concerns about his future at Al Nassr, while Benzema's injury problems have hampered his pursuit of the European Golden Shoe.
