Cristiano Ronaldo scored in the match between Al Nassr and Al Najma in the Saudi Pro League. Cristiano Ronaldo returned to action this Friday after more than a month out with injury in the Saudi Pro League clash between Al Nassr and Al Najma. He needed less than 60 minutes on the field to find the net again and move closer to the 1,000-goal milestone.
With the match tied 2-2 at the start of the second half, the Portuguese striker took a free kick from the edge of the box. The ball struck the arm of an opposing defender, prompting the referee to award a penalty, a decision later confirmed by VAR.
As usual, Ronaldo stepped up to take the penalty and converted it without issue. In the 56th minute, he scored Al Nassr’s third goal with a powerful right-footed strike that left goalkeeper Victor Braga with no chance, despite having guessed the direction of the ball.
