Al Nassr defeated Al Shabab in the Saudi Arabian league’s fourth round thanks to a brace from Ronaldo.

Al Nassr hosts Al Shabab at home in the fourth round of the Saudi Arabian League in 2023/2024. Ronaldo and his squad are predicted to easily secure all three points against a rival who hasn’t won a game since the start of the season.


Al Nassr had a great beginning. The host team was given a penalty as early as the 12th minute for a mistake involving an opponent’s player’s handball. Ronaldo scored the game’s first goal on the 11-meter free kick.

The Portuguese superstar had an opportunity to increase the deficit for Al Nassr in the 38th minute, also from a penalty. The success of CR7 persisted, giving the KSU team a 2-0 advantage.

Al Nassr also scored the third goal before the first half finished, all thanks to Mane’s efforts. The final score of the first half was also 3-0 in favor of the home team.


Al Nassr played rather lazily in the second half but still produced some excellent opportunities. After Al Shabab’s Banega was sent off in the 78th minute, the home team was even more outplayed.

In the 80th minute, from Ronaldo’s header that hit the post along the opposing goal, Al-Ghannam quickly finished into a goal, sealing a 4-0 victory for Al Nassr.


Winning the 2nd consecutive helped Al Nassr climb to 6th in the Saudi Arabian League table with 6 points, 6 points behind the top of the table, while Al Shabab fell to the penultimate position with only 2 points won after 4 rounds.
