Al Nassr are looking to keep their strong momentum in the 2026 AFC Champions League, with Cristiano Ronaldo as their ace up their sleeve. The Portuguese forward opened the scoring against Al Wasl just before the first quarter of the match.
A precise cross from the right saw CR7 arrive unmarked inside the box. With a powerful shot on goal, the forward opened the scoring for his team, which is aiming for qualification.
In this way, Cristiano Ronaldo, who also could make SPL history with a third straight Golden Boot, scored the 969th goal of his career. The milestone of reaching 1,000 is getting closer and closer.
Midway through the first half, Inigo Martinez and Amri extended the lead for Jorge Jesus’ team at Zabeel Stadium against Al Wasl. Al Nassr are looking to reach the semifinals of this competition.
Eyes on the Saudi Pro League
Al Nassr are currently leading the Saudi Pro League standings with 76 points, holding a solid advantage over Al-Hilal as the season enters its final stages. Cristiano Ronaldo remains a focal point of the team’s attack, having scored 24 goals.
With only five league games remaining and a potential trophy on the continental stage, Ronaldo and his teammates are in a prime position to finish the 2025-26 campaign with multiple titles.
