The win keeps Al-Nassr’s hopes of winning the competition alive, having not lifted the trophy since 1990.

Al-Nassr overpowered the hosts in the first half thanks to goals from Mane and Abdulrahman Ghareeb, with the latter coming on the stroke of half-time.

The win helped Al-Nassr qualify for the semi-final of the King’s Cup for the second year running.

They will be looking to do one better this season after they fell in the semis last term to Al-Wehda. Out of his fifty goals this year, Ronaldo has scored 40 for the Saudi Pro League side and 10 for Portugal.
