Ronaldo, alongside his dynamic teammate Sadio Mane, stole the spotlight by combining for three goals and two assists, igniting their team’s aspirations for the Saudi Pro League title, as reported by Goal.
The Portuguese maestro wasted no time, breaking the deadlock in the fifth minute after capitalizing on a defensive error from Al Wehda goalkeeper Munir Mohamedi.
Expanding his tally just seven minutes later, Ronaldo gracefully nodded in a precise cross from Marcelo Brozovic.
Meanwhile, Mane left his mark just before the halftime whistle, executing a swift one-two with Otavio before finding the back of the net.
In the second half, Al Nassr maintained their dominance, with Ronaldo securing his 66th career hat-trick and his fourth in the Saudi Pro League this season, sealing the deal in the 50th minute.
Mohamed Al Fatil concluded the scoring spree with a sixth goal, solidifying their triumphant performance.
With this victory, Ronaldo’s squad is now a mere nine points adrift from league leaders Al Hilal, with only four matches remaining in the season.
