| Ronaldo is in great shape: AFP |
Cristiano Ronaldo is in great shape. A few days ago, during the international break, he scored four goals in two matches to give Portugal a ticket to the main stage of the Euros. This time, Al Nasr got a great victory by holding the hands of that Ronaldo. Al Nasr won 2–1 against Damak. Ronaldo scored 12 goals in 12 matches for Al Nasr.
Al Nasr was under a bit of pressure due to a draw in the previous match against Abha before entering the field in Riyadh. Falling behind in first-half added time against Damac added to the pressure. But Damak could have scored more goals before the break if they had not missed the easy chance.
Ronaldo scored in the 48th minute after the break, but it was ruled out for offside. However, in the 52nd minute, Taliska's free-kick goal reduced the pressure to equalize the match. Ronaldo also stood with Taliska to take the free-kick. Damac's goalkeeper and defenders thought Ronaldo might take the free-kick. But Taliska suddenly took the free-kick. The Damak goalkeeper had no way of stopping the ball as it curled into the net near the near post.
After four minutes, Al Nasr got another free-kick. But this time no one else, Ronaldo himself took the shot. The Damak goalkeeper had nothing to do but watch his trademark free-kick. It was the 50th free-kick goal of his club career and 61 overall. And Ronaldo scored a free-kick almost 7 months later. Last March, 'CR Seven' scored from a free-kick in a match against Liechtenstein in Portugal's jersey.
After putting the team ahead, Ronaldo continued to try to increase the gap. His shot went over the bar in the 79th minute. On the other hand, Damak also tried to get back into the match. But neither team got another goal. Al Nasr left the field with victory. In this victory, Al Nasr has reached the second position in the list with 22 points in 10 matches. At the top, Al Hilal's points are 26 from 10 matches.
