In this match, the home team Al Nassr was led 0-1 by Al Riyadh in the 45+2 minute, with a goal by Faiz Selemani. But the brilliance of Cristiano Ronaldo helped Al Nassr come back to win 3 points.

First, in the 56th minute, Sadio Mane made a pass for Ronaldo to tap the ball into an empty net to score the equalizer 1-1 for Al Nassr. Just 8 minutes later, Ronaldo made the fans in the Al-Awwal Park stands to stand up and applaud with a beautiful goal.

Starting from a header cleared by an Al Riyadh defender, Ronaldo stood close to the 16.50m box and immediately unleashed a thunderous volley that flew straight up into the top corner. The ball hit the crossbar and then the post into the net, bringing a 2-1 victory to Al Nassr.

This is Ronaldo's 933rd career goal and his 115th goal for Al Nassr since moving to Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo's second goal against Al Riyadh was so impressive that it was nominated by netizens for the FIFA "Goal of the Year" (Puskas) award.

One fan wrote: "Give Ronaldo the Puskas award, this is the award for legends like him." Another commented: "Cristiano Ronaldo, you are truly ageless. I believe you will soon reach the 1,000 goal milestone."

This victory temporarily puts Al Nassr in third place with 57 points, 1 point behind defending champion Al Hilal and 8 points behind leader Al Ittihad, while the Saudi Pro League has 7 more rounds to finish. With this gap, it will be difficult for Ronaldo to find his first championship with Al Nassr.
