Champions League final to return to Camp Nou in 2029 after 30 years
UEFA has announced that Barcelona's Camp Nou will host the 2029 Champions League final, confirming European finals venues through 2029.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Al-Nassr suffered a 4-0 defeat to Al-Ain in the Asian Champions League Elite on Tuesday. Al-Nassr, the Saudi Arabian champions, had never won the tournament before. Houssine Rahimi, Houssine's brother, and Soufiane Rahimi scored for Al-Ain. Ronaldo attempted a late free kick but it was saved by the goalkeeper.
Al-Nassr coach Ange Postecoglou acknowledged the team's poor performance, stating they gave everything they had. The result leaves Al-Nassr with one win in their last four matches. Four-time champion Al-Hilal secured a 2-1 victory against Al-Gharafa after both teams played with ten men. Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad drew 1-1 with Pakhtakor and Al-Shamal, respectively. Al-Qadsiah started with a 2-1 win over Al-Wasl.
