Football fans were granted most of their wishes at Hong Kong Stadium on Saturday as the Saudi Super Cup concluded with a goal from Cristiano Ronaldo, even if the Portuguese was narrowly denied the silverware.

A crowd of about 30,000 cheered Ronaldo’s every contribution, with Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism Rosanna Law Shuk-pui and Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po among those looking on.

“What I heard from the organisers is that the effect and the impact are very satisfactory and they enjoyed having the games in Hong Kong,” Law said.

With the trophy presentation done, the teams headed to the airport to board flights shortly after midnight.
