As for the match, PSG went down to 10-man after Juan Bernat was sent-off early in the game. Yet, the French club went on to secure a 5-4 victory over Al Nassr-Al Hilal XI, with Messi opening the scoring.

Ronaldo too scored a couple of goals but that wasn't enough for his team to prevent a defeat against the mighty Europeans.

It was only fitting that Messi and Ronaldo were the first ones to score, with the Argentine legend doing so just three minutes in. However, Ronaldo fought back and scored on a penalty kick in the 34th minute.

Defender Marquinhos gave PSG the lead again in the 44th minute.
