In his third official game with Al Nassar, Cristiano Ronaldo exploded and scored all four goals for his team in the game against Al Wehda (0-4), on matchday seventeen of the Saudi Arabian League.
The Portuguese star had only scored one goal since his arrival in Saudi football. It was against Al Fateh a week ago in a match that ended in a two-goal draw.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who made his debut on January 22, failed to score against Al Ettifaq, who beat his team 1-0, or in the Saudi Super League, which Al Ittihad won 3-1.
But the third time was the charm and it was unleashed in the clash against Al Wehda to restore the lead of the competition.
He opened the scoring of the match played in the 21st minute at King Abdul Aziz Stadium in Makkah, taking advantage of a ball given to him by Abdulrahman Ghareeb. And the second was achieved five minutes before the break with a pass from Asmi Al Najei.
Cristiano extended his account with a penalty that he converted in the 51st and sealed his poker ten minutes later when he drew the fourth to seal victory for his team.
The win marked a return to victory for Al Nassr, who had drawn twice in their last four games. With the three points, they are at the top of Saudi Arabia’s table thanks to goal difference, tied with Al Shabab who have one game in hand.
Cristiano Ronaldo, for his part, has already collected five goals in the Saudi league. Still far from his partner, the Brazilian Anderson Talisca who adds up to thirteen.
