Anderson Talisca has spoken of his pride at contributing to Al Nassr’s transformation into what he considers “one of the largest clubs in the world” after firing a hat-trick to almost seal their place in the Asian Champions League knockout stages.
The Brazilian, top scorer for the team last season, proved the match-winner in Cristiano Ronaldo’s absence on Tuesday night, when he struck three times to give Nassr a 3-2 win at Al Duhail in Qatar.
Ronaldo, himself in superb form this season, was rested for the tie. The victory maintained Nassr’s 100 per cent record in this season’s Champions League, and means they require only one point from their remaining two matches to progress to the last 16 with two rounds to spare.
