Al-Nassr celebrates a historic championship

Following the Al-Nassr team's victory in the Saudi League championship on May 22, 2026, mass events were reported throughout the Kingdom. hullf, a fan of the team, described the win as a dream come true and emphasized the importance of Cristiano Ronaldo's presence, noting with excitement: "The legendary Ronaldo kisses my team's emblem".

Celebrations in the streets and the crowd's influence


Social media reported traffic congestion and widespread road blockages as a result of the celebrations. _fofi12 noted that in the cities of Al-Qassim and Al-Jubail, unprecedented scenes were recorded, and that "The popularity of Al-Nassr in the Eastern Province is something scary", with celebrations lasting until the early hours of the morning.

Criticism against the fans' 'mentality'


Not everyone shares in the joy. sattamalthqil, who presents a critical stance toward the team's management and fans, argues that the outward joy stems from "years of accumulated deprivation and distress." According to him, "The Al-Nassr mentality is artistic in its sadness and crying, and when joy arrives, it faces a stranger it does not know how to deal with".

At the same time, disputes have arisen online regarding the question of the fans' identity and intellectual property, with hullf even threatening legal action against other fans on grounds of digital identity theft.
