HA’IL,: Cristiano Ronaldo scored and assisted a goal each as Al Nassr beat Al Ta’ee 2-1 in a Saudi Pro League match at the Prince Abdul Aziz bin Musa’ed Stadium in Ha’il on Friday. This was Ronaldo’s 10th goal in six consecutive league matches as the five-time Ballon d’Or winner continues to prove his dominance, following an exit from European football last year.

Al Nassr, playing against a side placed seven spots below it, started the match on the offensive, with a quartet having ample European football experience.

The win helped Al Nassr climb two spots to third in the league table, with 18 points from eight games while Al Ta’ee remained at 12th with seven points from eight games. Ronaldo’s side will now turn its attention to the AFC Champions League, where it faces FC Istikol from Tajikistan, three days later. Agencies
