In the headline fixture of Matchday 30 in the Saudi Pro League, Al-Nassr are hosting Al-Ahli, and it was a legendary star who delivered an important goal.
Details: It was Cristiano Ronaldo who opened the scoring in the 76th minute — a hugely significant strike for the home side. For the Portuguese forward, it was the 970th goal of his career. He now stands just 30 goals away from 1,000.
Al-Nassr currently sit top of the table, and if they manage to hold on to this lead, they will move eight points clear of second place. However, Al-Hilal still have a game in hand as well as a head-to-head clash to come.
Reminder: Cristiano Ronaldo’s future in Saudi Arabia is hanging by a thread.
