Al Nassr traveled to face Al-Shabab in the 23rd round match of the Saudi Pro League. The hosts have been performing poorly this season and are firmly stuck in the middle of the league table. On the contrary, Al Nassr has been showing decent performances in the domestic league and recently secured a spot in the AFC Champions League quarter-finals.

In the first half, the teams battled evenly, exchanging converted penalties. It's worth noting that Ronaldo scored for the guests, marking his 22nd goal in the current Saudi Pro League campaign.

Early in the second half, Anderson Talisca surprised the opponent's goalkeeper with a shot to the center of the goal, putting his team ahead. The hosts, disagreeing with this turn of events, equalized again through Carlos Junior. Despite their efforts, the hosts couldn't secure a win. In the 87th minute, Talisca completed his brace, sending the ball past the goalkeeper.

Al-Shabab 2-3 Al Nassr
Goals: Carrasco 45+8 (penalty), Carlos Junior 67 - Ronaldo 20 (penalty), Talisca 47, 87.

Sent off: Radif 90+12 (repeated warning, Al-Shabab)
