In round 31 of the Saudi Arabia National Championship, Al Nassr came as a guest to weak opponent Al Akhoud. CR7’s team got off to a very good start when Brozovic scored a beautiful long-range shot after just 7 minutes to open the score.

In the 15th minute, Ali Al Hassan dribbled the ball on the right wing and then passed inside, creating a favorable opportunity for Ronaldo to kick into Al Akhoud’s net. That was the 891st goal of CR7’s career.
Al Nassr maintained a good position until the end of the first half, but in the second half the situation suddenly worsened for the away team. In the 60th minute, Al Habib shortened the score to 1-2 for Al Akhoud in the 60th minute with a kick outside the penalty area. In the 70th minute, Godwin took advantage of a moment of unconsciousness from Laporte and Alamri in the Al Nassr penalty area to equalize.
Al Nassr will give the championship to Al Hilal with this score, so they must attack. After many efforts, Al Nassr also scored the 3-2 victory goal from Brozovic in the 90+1 minute to continue to maintain fragile hope in the race to the championship.
However, Al Nassr and Ronaldo will have the second consecutive year of not being able to win the Saudi Arabian National Championship if Al Hilal defeats Al Hazm in the evening match on May 10.
