Al-Nassr dominate as Cristiano Ronaldo scores lateFor all their attacking threat, Al-Nassr were pushed hard by a stubborn Al-Khaleej outfit but were in control for much of the match. The first half ended without any goals, but it was Colombian forward Jhon Durán who broke the deadlock in the 75th minute, calmly finishing inside the area to give the home side a well-deserved lead.
The visitors did everything they could to earn an equalizer, which allowed for space on the counter for Al-Nassr. Then, in the dying seconds of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo was badly tackled inside the box, winning a penalty. Stepping up, the 40-year-old slotted home obliquely in the 97th minute, securing his 935th career goal and sealing the outcome.

Eyes on history as Cristiano Ronaldo nears 1,000-goal markCristiano Ronaldo's goal record rises to 935, and he is now just 65 goals from the elusive 1,000-goal club — a milestone no player in the modern era has ever achieved. With the sun setting on his career, Ronaldo nevertheless continues to be pivotal to the Al-Nassr frontline.
