Times of Oman3 days ago
New Delhi: Legendary Portugal and Al-Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo is finally engaged to his long-time girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez, with the latter taking to social media to show the engagement ring.
The football legend's partner took to social media, showing off a shiny ring with caption, "Yes I do. In this and in all my lives.". Cristiano also appears and is tagged in the picture.
It has almost been a decade since both have been dating and have four children together.
Also, Georgina shared some pictures on Instagram, showcasing a grand arrangement as the couple hosted some close friends on the occasion of Friendship Day, which fuelled speculations of the superstar footballer's engagement to his girlfriend.
The 40-year-old icon is aiming for a brilliant season with Al-Nassr, with an eye on the biggest prize, the Saudi Pro League title, a trophy which he has not been able to win since he arrived in the Middle East way back in 2023. The squad has been strengthened with the presence of his national team-mate Joao Felix, while Kingsley Coman is also going to join the Saudi giants, as per Goal.com.
Back in June, Cristiano renewed his contract with Al Nassr till 2027.
The superstar footballer signed with the Club in 2022 after the World Cup that year, leaving Manchester United to become a free agent. His deal was for two and a half years.
Showing no signs of ageing and decline, he led Portugal to the UEFA Nations League title earlier this month, defeating Spain in the final.
With over 930 goals scored across his career already, he is aiming for the 1,000-goal mark.

UEFA Super Cup: Spurs fumble 2-0 lead as PSG capture title on penalties

Udine: Tottenham Hotspurs fumbled a 2-0 lead, losing out on penalties to the UEFA Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the UEFA Super Cup final at Italy. On Wednesday night, PSG made a stunning comeback during the final few minutes of the second half, securing the title win in European football's season starter. The Premier League side opened the tally in the 39th minute, a free kick was whipped into the box, and PSG debutant Lucas Chevalier did make a fine save from Joao Palhinha by tipping his attempt onto the crossbar. Still, Micky van de Ven scored on the rebound. After the half-time, another free kick sent by Pedro Porro found Cristian Romero unmarked at the back post and his header slipped through the fingers of the goalie, doubling the lead for Spurs. During the 65th minute, Bradley Barcola beat Guglielmo Vicario from close range, handing a lifeline to the French giants, but the goal was ruled out for offside. With just six minutes left on the clock, Tottenham started their downfall, as Kang-in Lee's fantastic edge-of-the-box strike opened the goal tally for PSG. During the injury time, PSG were exceptional, as Goncalo Ramos' superb header after an Ousmane Dembele cross took the game to penalties. During the shoot-out, Dominic Solanke and Rodrigo Bentancur scored, while Micky's spot kick was saved and Mathys Tel missed his. PSG won the shootout by 4-3, as Nuno Mendes converted the decisive spot kick. Following the game, Spurs coach Thomas Frank told TNT Sport, as quoted by Sky Sports, "In one game, I think we can show we can play against any team in the world. I'm not in doubt about that, and that is a positive to take away from this." "We had them exactly where we wanted them for 80-something minutes until they made it 2-1. Then it shifted the momentum, but I am so proud of the team, players, club and fans." "We showed we can be adaptable and pragmatic. We needed to be that against a team like PSG with the way we wanted to defend, with both high pressure and a low block. The first half was almost perfect, and the set-pieces were very dangerous. "I think we played a very good game against one of the best teams in the world, maybe the best," he concluded.

The competition's new start date is 30 September, a shift from the previously scheduled date of 16 September. The decision was made after the competitions committee approved a request for the delay from the tournament's sponsoring company.

The association emphasised its commitment to delivering an exceptional tournament this season by providing all the necessary elements for technical and organisational success.
