Thanks to its two superstars Sadio Mané and Cristiano Ronaldo, second-placed Al-Nassr remains on the heels of leaders Al-Hilal in the Saudi Professional League, but is already seven points behind.
The ex-Bayern player and Portugal’s superstar each scored two goals in Al-Nassr’s 5-2 win against reigning champions Al-Ittihad. After Karim Benzema and Fabinho, who was also sent off with a yellow-red card, each caused a penalty, Ronaldo converted safely on both occasions.
This brings the 38-year-old to an incredible 53 goals in the 2023 calendar year and is ahead of Harry Kane (52), Kylian Mbappé (52) and Erling Haaland (50).
Mané brought the finishing line with his two goals in the final phase. Talisca scored Al-Nassr’s second goal.
