RIYADH: It was the Cristiano Ronaldo show once again as the megastar scored two more memorable goals to steer Al-Nassr to a 3-0 win over Al-Akhdoud on Friday.
The victory, an 18th in the last 19 games in all competitions, put Al-Nassr just a point behind the leaders Al-Hilal. The in-form Yellows started strongly against the relegation strugglers.
After only a minute, Anderson Talisca shot over from just inside the area, and three minutes later, Ronaldo cut inside from the left and fired a shot that drifted past the post.
Al-Nassr took the lead after 13 minutes. From the right byline Sultan Al-Ghannam calmly rolled the ball across for Sami Al-Naji to pick his spot and fire home.
