Soccer sometimes has those bitter ironies that even the greatest geniuses can't swallow. And if there's anyone who hates losing more than anything, it's Cristiano Ronaldo. But this time, the Portuguese went beyond his traditional frustration when he was beaten by Al-Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup. In an embarrassing display, the star left the pitch before he had even received his silver medal and, even worse, mocked his own team on the pitch. An attitude that, at the very least, shows how dissatisfied he is with the path he has chosen by moving to Arab soccer.

However, that will be easier said than done after losing a key piece of their core. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope signed with the Orlando Magic in free agency this summer, leaving the Nuggets with a huge void at the starting shooting guard position.

When I studied Anthropology in college, I learned that teeth have been indicators of economic status just about forever. Archaeologists look at the teeth in ancient skeletons and know who the rich were based on their tooth decay. During the Renaissance period, it became fashionable for women to blacken their teeth to look like they were better off than they were, because the royals and aristocrats, who could afford sugar and sweets, had more rotten and missing teeth than the poor.

Cristiano Ronaldo fired Al-Nassr into a half-time lead against Al-Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup on Saturday. The attacker broke the deadlock towards the end of the first half when he got onto the end of a cut back from Abdulrahman Ghareeb. The Portugal icon did not make a clean connection with the ball, but he did just enough to divert it past Bono and in.

Saudi Arabia is not just a hub for megaprojects; it’s slowly becoming the epicenter of world class sporting venues. While the world eagerly anticipates the sporting events that will be hosted by the Kingdom, I am particularly thrilled to witness the grand stadiums and OTT venues coming to life. Among these architectural marvels is the Aramco Stadium, a shining gem set to dazzle during the 2034 FIFA World Cup. The global architecture studio Populous has been commissioned to infuse this 47,000-seat stadium (with a maximum capacity of 55,000 for concerts) with luxury, grandeur, and jaw-dropping features. Situated in Al Khobar, this venue is not only gearing up to host the 2027 AFC Asian Cup but also the prestigious 2034 FIFA World Cup.

Saudi Crown Prince MBS was so impressed by this Missouri-based architecture firm that he appointed them to design a $390 million, 47,000-seat soccer stadium, potentially a venue for the 2034 FIFA World Cup.
