Cristiano Ronaldo inches closer to No.1000 as he returned from from strike.
Cristiano Ronaldo showed his worth to Al-Nassr and the Super Lig at large, as he scored upon his return to action after missing the last three games in protest against the club's leadership.
Ronaldo scored inside the 18th minute to give Faris Najd the lead, before Ayman Yahya's goal in the 78th minute sealed the clash. With the victory, Jorge Jesus's side keep pace with Al-Hilal, staying one point behind the Blue Waves.
Key match details
Al-Nassr seized the initiative early. In the 18th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo converted after side-footing a composed finish into the bottom corner following a well-worked attacking move.
The goal was Ronaldo’s first on his return to the Al-Nassr starting line-up after a brief absence amid dispute with club management, and it was his 962nd career goal, as he continues the pursuit of his 1000th career goal.
Al-Fateh continued to press for a response but struggled to consistently trouble the Al-Nassr defence, with the visitors proving a tough nut to crack.
The decisive second goal arrived in the 78th minute. Substitute Aiman Yahya took advantage of a defensive lapse, finishing to double Al-Nassr’s lead to 2–0.
Al-Nassr entered game management mode, seeing out the remainder of the contest comfortably after taking the two-goal cushion. Al-Fateh’s best late opportunities failed to test the visitors’ goalkeeper, with the Faris Najd backline limiting the danger.
