Cristiano Ronaldo delivered another masterclass performance as Al-Nassr secured a dominant 3-0 victory over Al Akhdoud on Saturday, extending their record-breaking run to 10 consecutive wins in the Saudi Pro League.
The Portuguese superstar scored twice to lead his side to a flawless start to the season, firmly placing Al-Nassr at the top of the league table with a four-point advantage over their closest rivals. The win further strengthened the club’s credentials as title favorites and highlighted Ronaldo’s growing influence since joining the Saudi giants in 2023.
Ronaldo opened the scoring shortly after the half-hour mark, showing perfect positioning at the back post to tap in a well-timed headed assist from Angelo Gomes. He doubled Al-Nassr’s lead just before halftime with a moment of brilliance, instinctively flicking a precise pass from Marcelo Brozovic into the net using the outside of his boot.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner narrowly missed out on a hat-trick in the second half when a tight offside decision ruled out his seventh goal of the Saudi Pro League campaign. However, compatriot João Félix sealed the convincing victory by adding a third goal in the final stages of the match.
With this historic win, Al-Nassr continued their remarkable momentum and took another major step toward Ronaldo’s pursuit of his first Saudi Pro League title, marking a significant chapter in his illustrious career in the Middle East.
