WHAT HAPPENED? The ball was passed to Ronaldo on the edge of the Al-Fateh box and he flicked it behind him and into the path of Mane, who made no mistake against goalkeeper Jacob Rinne. Ronaldo then went on to double his team’s lead by heading in from a Sultan Al-Ghannam cross.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: The goal was Mane’s second for Al-Nassr since joining from Bayern Munich, while Ronaldo has been in fine form as he helped the team secure the Arab Club Champions Cup before the Saudi Pro League started.
WHAT NEXT? Ronaldo and Co. are in action again on September 2 when they face Al-Hazem.
