Al Nassr were crowned Saudi Pro League champions after a dominant 4–1 home win over Damac FC. Cristiano Ronaldo scored a brace in the match, reaching 973 career goals.
First, CR7 connected on a precise free kick that managed to beat the visiting side’s defense. With many players in the middle, the goalkeeper could not track the ball’s direction and was unable to stop it.
Later, with just a handful of minutes left in the match, the Portuguese forward finished clinically inside the box, scoring his brace and making it 4–1 in the game.
Previously, Sadio Mane and Kingsley Coman had given Al Nassr a 2–0 lead. The match regained excitement after Damac FC managed to pull one back through a penalty kick.
Jorge Jesus’ squad claimed a title that has eluded the club for quite some time. In this way, Cristiano Ronaldo finally could celebrate his first official championship since arriving in the Saudi Pro League, and added a new title to his career, putting him neck and neck with Lionel Messi.
