Having scored four goals in his most recent outing, the clash at Mrsool Park saw the superstar turn provider. Early in the first-half, Al Nassr’s midfield won the ball back after a throw and fired it forward.

fter a team-mate brought the pass under control, Ronaldo ran onto it and delivered a brilliant curling pass forward, which alluded the Al Taawoun defence. Instead the pass found its way to Al-Nassr winger Abdulrahman Ghareeb.

The winger burst into the box before firing the ball into the far post past Taawoun keeper Mailson. Ronaldo immediately sprinted towards Ghareeb, who had run into the corner to celebrate.
