After continuing the momentum of scoring a goal against Damah last weekend, Ronaldo flourished again in the Al Nassr shirt. During the first half, Ronaldo actually did not take many shots, but most of the time, he tried to create opportunities for his teammates. In one of those plays, he skillfully used his heel to help Talisca score a dangerous cross-angle shot to open the score.

1-0 was also the result of the first half, before opening a jubilant second half with 6 goals. With Coutinho as leader and creative midfielder Behrami, Al Duhail did not hesitate to launch a counterattack. Right at the beginning of the second half, Coutinho hit the post, giving a powerful warning.

But then Al Nassr still overcame everything to score consecutive goals. In the 55th minute, Saudi Arabia Club doubled the gap with Mane’s close-range shot. 5 minutes later, Ronaldo scored a super goal with a dribble and a shot with his left foot from outside the penalty area. At this time, Al Nassr led 3-0 and the “disease” of sloppy defense made them worried again.

In the 63rd minute, Mohammad headed powerfully to shorten the score to 1-3 for the away team. 4 minutes later, Al Duhail scored a lucky second goal. Almoez Ali, the striker who scored against U23 Vietnam in the semi-finals of U23 Asia 2018, shot quite strongly and the ball hit defender Al Nassr and flew into the net.

The score is now 3-2 and Al Nassr is at risk of losing points. Right at the most difficult time, Ronaldo shines again. In the 81st minute, he scored an impressive shot to help Al Nassr increase the score to 4-2, seemingly deciding the match. The efforts of Qatar’s representatives brought them an equalizer in the 85th minute, setting the score 4-3 in favor of Al Nassr.

According to statistics, Al Duhail is the 188th club opponent that Ronaldo scored in his career. This is also the second time Ronaldo “fired” in the AFC Champions League. All helped him reach 20 goals and 7 assists in the Al Nassr shirt. Ronaldo’s total goals in 2023 have reached 43, far ahead of Haaland and Mbappe by 3 and 6 goals respectively.
