The highly anticipated match between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo is not going to happen, which will disappoint football fans. Cristiano Ronaldo will not play on January 31 versus Inter Miami for Al Nassr due to an injury. The rivals' "last dance" was when they played each other again.
Ronaldo injured
After Al Nassr's tour of China was postponed, Ronaldo injured himself and would not be playing. In an official statement, the gifted former Real Madrid star expressed his disappointment at being injured and assured supporters that he still wants to play for them and will hopefully return soon.

The manager of Al Nassr, Luis Castro, claims that Ronaldo is almost totally recovered and will soon be able to return to the club. But he cannot participate in the upcoming match against Inter Miami. The news disheartens supporters who were anticipating the match, as Messi and Ronaldo are among the greatest football players of all time.
Al-Hilal vs Inter Miam
Messi and Inter Miami will be attempting to secure their first victory of the preseason in the meantime. The Riyadh Season Cup opener they played was a loss to Al-Hilal. Al-Hilal prevailed 4–3, despite goals from Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.
However, until Ronaldo completes his recovery and prepares to join the Al Nassr team, they will not be able to play one another. Messi and Inter Miami will be concentrating on showcasing their skills on the field and winning their first preseason game in the meantime.
