Playing at home with a superior force, Al-Nassr dominated the game from the start and took the initiative to attack. The home team's attacks were always directed towards Ronaldo, but Al-Fateh's defense did well in blocking the sharp attacks from this team.
However, the solidity of the away team's defense could not be maintained until the end of the first half. In the 41st minute, Al-Nassr suddenly gained an advantage when Al-Fateh defender Marwane Saadane scored an own goal, bringing the opening goal to the home team at Mrsool Park.
In the second half, the game continued to favor Al-Nassr as the home team maintained control of the ball and actively organized attacks. In the 57th minute, Al-Nassr doubled the gap after a set piece situation. Angelo made an accurate cross from the left wing for Simakan to jump high and head the ball past the away team's goalkeeper.
After taking a 2-0 lead, Al-Nassr suddenly slowed down the pace of the match and created conditions for Al-Fateh to come back. In the 70th minute, a mistake by goalkeeper Bento created an opportunity for Mourad Batna to score, narrowing the score to 1-2.
However, the class of the big team spoke up at the right time. In the 87th minute, Ronaldo had a delicate tap-in after a pass from his teammate, sealing a 3-1 victory for Al-Nassr. This goal marked the 920th important milestone in the illustrious career of the Portuguese superstar.
This victory helped Al-Nassr temporarily rise to 3rd place on the rankings with 35 points, continuing the race for the Saudi Arabia national championship.
