Playing at Al Awwal Park, Ronaldo opened the score early after escaping to shoot diagonally accurately. Although the initial situation was flagged offside by the biên referee, VAR later determined a valid goal for the home team.
In the 30th minute, Kingsley Coman doubled the gap before Angelo Gabriel increased the score to 3-0 in the 77th minute. Just two minutes later, Ronaldo completed a double with a familiar diagonal shot, closing a convincing victory for Al-Nassr.
This victory also marks Ronaldo's milestone of 120 goals after 135 appearances for Al-Nassr in all competitions. In the Saudi Pro League this season, the Portuguese striker has scored 20 goals after 20 matches, continuing to be in the top scorer group.
In the match at the same time, Al-Hilal was held to a 1-1 draw, thereby creating conditions for Al-Nassr to rise to the top of the rankings with 55 points, one point more than their direct competitor when the season enters an important stage.
In the next round, Ronaldo and his teammates will meet the Al-Najma team, while Al-Hilal will travel to the stadium of the 5th-place Al-Taawon team.
